Sammartino Doubles Through Ruivo

Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante

Dario Sammartino and Manuel Ruivo got in a raising war in the blinds, with Sammartino having 7,500 in front of him and facing 17,500 from big blind Ruivo. Sammartino came back with 30,000 and Ruivo called. The flop came {5-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} and Sammartino bet 16,000. Ruivo called. The turn was an {a-Spades} and Sammartino shoved all in.

Ruivo got the count, which was 43,800, and called fairly quickly.

Sammartino opened {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts} and Ruivo was dead with {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}, hitting a worthless boat on the {q-Spades} river.
