Cruz Spikes Ace on River and Doubles Through Halverson

Level 24 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Francis Cruz
Francis Cruz

A series of preflop raises saw Francis Cruz four-bet jam for 1,640,000 from the button only to have Mitchell Halverson snap-call from the small blind.

Francis Cruz: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Mitchell Halverson: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

It was a classic race with Cruz looking to connect with either of his two overs but neither came after the {6-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} flop hit the felt.

The {7-Diamonds} turn brought possible chop outs if a four or nine were to fall but luckily for Cruz, it was the {a-Spades} that completed the board on the river and kept his Main Event hopes alive.
