Crawford Takes the Rest from Cruz
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Eider Cruz, who had already been whittled down to a short stack, opened to 8,000 on the button and then moved all in after Brandon Crawford three-bet to 22,000 out of the small blind. Crawford quickly called to put his opponent at risk.
Eider Cruz: A♥Q♣ 
Brandon Crawford: A♦K♣
Cruz was dominated and would need significant help to survive. None came on the 7♠5♣A♠A♣3♠ runout to hand Crawford the pot and knockout while forcing Cruz to the exits.
