Schutten Cracks Kings to Survive

Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Brek Schutten was all in for his last 44,000 from the cutoff, and Alexandru Papazian made the call from the button.
Brek Schutten: 6?5?
Alexandru Papazian: K?K?
Schutten looked to be heading home but the 5?9?8? flop provided a plethora of outs for the American player.
One of those outs appeared on the turn as the 7? completed Schutten's straight, which left Papazian drawing to a chop.
No such chop would occur as the 10? river gave Schutten the double-up.
