Ruma Has It
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
Christopher Ruma bet 7,000 from early position and was met with a raise from the button to 11,000. Ruma made the call.
The flop came J♠3♠2♣ and the button moved all in for 42,000 and was snap-called by Ruma.
Button: Q♠Q♣
Christopher Ruma: 8♠8♣
Ruma was dominated and could only hit an eight to win the pot. The 9♣ was a brick, but the 8♥ on the river gave Ruma a set and he celebrated loudly, while the button picked up the pocket ladies and slammed them to the felt.
