Mintzy Spikes the River
Level 29
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Action folded to the small blind Ben Mintz, who raised all in for 1,455,000. David Fhima who was still stacking his chips from the hand before when he knocked out an opponent with pocket aces, made the call to put Mintz are risk.
Ben Mintz: 8?5? 
David Fhima: A?8?
Mintz was dominated by Fhima and said before the flop came out "I only jammed because he was still counting his chips". But once the board ran out Q?8?9?2?5?, Mintz spiked the river to make two pair with eights and fives and secured the double up.
