Rubiralta Cracks Palma's Queens
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
With over 40,000 in the middle Gerard Rubiralta, who was in the big blind was seen smoke-betting 2,500 as the 9♦6♦4♦J♠ turn hit the felt. Nick Palma began the hand from under the gun and was Rubiralta's only opponent. He pushed his last 2,000 chips across the line, putting himself at risk, and both players revealed their hands.
Nick Palma: Q♣Q♥ 
Gerard Rubiralta: 10♦7♦
Rubiralta had flopped a flush against the over pair of Palma, leaving him drawing dead as the dealer completed the board with the 7♣ river.
