Marin Ottaviano got his last 685,000 into the middle preflop out of the small blind against Jahson Spence in the hijack.

Ottaviano was racing for his tournament life with his AcKh up against Spence’s QdQh.

The flop was Qc8c6c and Spence flopped top set, but Ottaviano flopped the nut flush draw. The turn was the 3c, which gave Ottaviano his flush.

The river was the 5c and Ottaviano dodged a board pairing river to double up and leave Spence with just one big blind.

Martin Ottaviano – 1,350,000 (27 bb)
Jahson Spence – 50,000 (1 bb)
