Ruffini Doubles Through Gonzalez; Gonzalez Left Crippled

Nacho Barbero raised to 4,900 from under the gun and received a call from Guido Ruffini in the small blind. Carlos Gonzalez pushed out a three-bet to 15,400 from the big blind and both players called.

The flop fell {J-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{9-Spades} and Ruffini checked. Gonzalez moved all in, causing Barbero to fold his cards. Ruffini made the call and the hands were turned over:

Ruffini: {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Gonzalez: {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}

Ruffini was ahead with a flopped straight and it held up through fourth and fifth street, which fell {K-Hearts} and {5-Spades}. This hand left Gonzalez with only 5,000 in chips.
