Ramos Spikes the River to Secure Double up
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Action began with the under-the-gun player, who raised to 1,600 and received calls from Maria Konnikova in late position, Gabe Ramos in the small blind, and the big blind.
Both blinds checked the J?2?5? flop and the under-the-gun player bet 2,200. Konnikova folded and Ramos check-raised to 8,000. The big blind folded and the under-the-gun player took a moment before putting in the call.
Ramos went all in for his remaining 30,400 on the 4? turn and his opponent called to put Ramos at risk.
Gabe Ramos: 5?8?
Under the Gun: A?J?
Ramos was behind with his pair and flush draw versus his opponent's top-pair but had many outs. One of those outs came on the 5? river and Ramos took down a decent pot with trip fives.
