Montealegre Finds the Full Double Up
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
The action was caught as three players were navigating a board of J♠4♦9♦A♠.
Soraya Estrada, in the big blind, checked the action to Ivonne Montealegre, in middle position. Montealegre bet out 6,000 and Georgina James, in the hijack, raised to 14,000. Estrada folded and Montealegre moved all in for 44,500. James called.
Ivonne Montealegre: 4♣4♠ 
Georgina James: A♦6♦
Montealegre was ahead with a set, but James had outs to a flush. The 7♣ saw Montealegre's set stay best and she found a big double up.
