Kingstone Makes a Big Call with a Little Pair

Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Heads up to a turn of 6?Q?2?2?, Anthony Ruttler went all in for about 550,000 and put Max Kingstone to a tough decision, who spent a good chunk of time working out the hand.
Finally, with one card to come, Kingstone made the call and put Ruttler at risk.
Anthony Ruttler: A?4?
Max Kingstone: 4?4?
Kingstone saw the good news but still needed to dodge a heart or ace on the river, which he did when the 10? fell.
Ruttler got 7th place in this very tournament last year for $66,670 and has racked up plenty of cashes since then, so he'll be one to watch.
