Roberts Saved by Rivered Ace
Lauren Roberts kicks off the action with a raise under the gun to 3,000. It folded round to David Peters in the small blind, and he three-bet as Christian Christner called in the big blind.
Roberts called also as both Peters and Christner checked the 
flop to Roberts who opted to bet out 12,000.
Peters folded, but Christner check-raised to 36,000 as Roberts went into the tank. Roberts then elected to use one of her time extension buttons before finally coming to a decision of a three-bet amounting to 88,000. Christner paused for a few moments and then moved all in as Roberts made the call for her tournament life.

Roberts: 
With Roberts in desperate need to spike either an ace or running cards to make a flush or straight, the turn of the 
would leave her drawing to just an ace.
Fortunately for Roberts, the river landed the 
and ensured her of a double to 420,000 while Christner drops to 70,000 in chips.
