Fata Survives Rollercoaster Runout
Level 32
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Philipp Wood shoved form the button and Mario Fata called off his stack of just under a million from the big blind.
Mario Fata: A?3? 
Philipp Wood: Q?J?
Fata was marginally in the lead and stayed there through the 5?7?3? flop, though Wood did pick up a lot more outs. The 3? turn gave Fata trips, but also completed the flush of Wood, which meant Fata was one card from elimination.
However, the A? on the river gave Fata a full house, and he managed to survive.
