Rivera Gets a Quick Double

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

Alex Rivera just got here, but he's already doubled his stack. Shortly before the break, with the board reading {A-Spades}{6-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}, Rivera shoved his last 17,475 into a pot of around 15,000. His opponent in Seat 1 asked for a count, and upon hearing how much Rivera had, he called.

Rivera: {A-Clubs}{7-Hearts}
Seat 1: {9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}

Rivera was ahead with top pair and an open-ender, but he still had some outs to fade to win the pot. The {10-Diamonds} on the river rang true for Rivera and he doubled up to 49,100.
