Bartal Spikes the River to Stay In It
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Action was picked up with Gabriel Bartal all in for 8,000, and Sarah Cruce calling to put him at risk.
Gabriel Bartal: A♠3♦ 
Sarah Cruce: J♣10♣
Cruce had two live cards against the ace high, and after the 2♥J♦Q♠ flop Cruce took the lead with her pair of jacks. The 6♣ on the turn was no help for Bartal, but the A♦ on the river allowed him to double up with his pair of aces.
