Ruiz Sends One Packing

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Jorge Ruiz called his short-stacked opponent's shove for her final 8,700 with {10-Diamonds}{8-Spades} and was up against {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}.

The {j-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{4-Clubs} flop came him an open-ended straight draw, but he didn't need it after hitting a pair on the {8-Diamonds} turn. The river came a blank {7-Diamonds}, and the 2019 third-place finisher scored a knockout.
