Crawford Sends a Player to the Rail
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Action was picked up before the flop with 8,300 in the pot.
The flop came 5♠10♣2♣ and a player from middle position bet 6,000, when James Crawford in the hijack raised to 20,000. Alvin Anton folded on the button, and the player in middle position three-bet all in for 24,500. Crawford quickly called to put the player at risk.
Middle Position: A♣K♣ 
James Crawford: Q♥10♠
Crawford was ahead with is pair of tens but would need to fade a club or the two over cards of his opponent. The board ran out J♥ on the turn, and 3♥ on the river. Crawford still had the best hand with his pair of tens, and the player in middle position was eliminated.
