Gelinski Comes From Behind to Double
Level 11
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
The under the gun player raised to 12,000 and Daniel De Almeida called on the button before Alex Gelinski moved all in for 103,000 in the small blind. The initial raiser folded, while De Almeida called to put Gelinski at risk.
Alex Gelinski: A?J? 
Daniel De Almeida: A?Q?
De Almeida had Gelinski dominated and was poised for the knockout until the flop brought J?9?2?, giving Gelinski top pair and the lead. The K? turn gave De Almeida outs to a straight as he told the dealer to turn over the river card slowly. It was the 2?, offering no help to De Almeida as he handed over the double up.
