Baumann Falls Behind on the River to Bust
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Gaelle Baumann raised from under the gun, recving calls from Mohamed Aissaoui, in the hijack, and Davidi Kitai, in the big blind.
The action checked to Baumann, who bet out 4,000 on the 9♣2♠8♠ flop. Aissaoui called and Kitai folded.
The 4♣ turn saw Baumann size up to 11,000. Aissaoui was undeterred.
The J♦ river slowed down Baumann with a check. Aissaoui placed a bet large enough to put Baumann all in for her remaining 16,000 and Baumann snap-called for her tournament life.
Gaelle Baumann: 10♠10♣ 
Mohamed Aissaoui: J♠9♥
Baumann was almost in the clear to gain three streets of value, but she fell behind Aissaoui's rivered two pair, sending her to the rail.
