Adrian Brion Continues to Hang On

Level 24: 25,000 / 50,000 ante: 50,000
Adrian Brion

Action folded to the blinds, prompting big stacked Khayal Abbasov to open raise all-in. Adrian Brion on the big blind, called off his last couple of big blinds and found himself in for a flip for his tournament life.


Things were looking glum for Brion as the flop 4 5 2 landed Abbasov a set, but quickly turned around as the runout 3 6 showed a straight on board for a split pot.
