Riba Spikes a Queen to Stay Alive
Nivel 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
When the action folded to Mariona Riba on the button, she committed her last 10,000 into the middle. Jan Cvach made the call from the small blind to put her at risk.
Mariona Riba: K♣Q♠ 
Jan Cvach: A♥5♠
Cvach's ace-high stayed ahead through the K♦9♠8♦ flop, but the Q♥ turn moved Riba into the lead with a pair of queens. The 4♥ river didn't change anything, and Riba doubled up through Cvach.
