Ruiz Catches Runner-Runner to Double
Level 23
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Vladimir Minko raised to 600,000 in early position and Troy Quenneville three-bet to 1,600,000 in middle position. Pablo Ruiz then called for 1,450,000 and Minko got out of the way.
"I have no decision, right?" Quenneville confirmed before they turned over their cards.
Pablo Ruiz: K♦6♦ 
Troy Quenneville: A♠Q♦
Quenneville hit top pair on the Q♥5♣9♦ flop to take a big lead in the pot, but the board ran out A♦7♦ to give Ruiz a running flush as he earned a fortunate double up.
