Garcia Spikes the River to Stay Alive
Niveau 21
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Craig Varnell raised in the hijack, and the action folded around to Cord Garcia in the big blind, who jammed for 345,000. Before the words were even fully out of his mouth, Varnell slammed a stack of reds across the line to make the call.
Cord Garcia: K♣Q♦
Craig Varnell: 10♥10♦
It was a classic race, and it was looking good for Varnell as the flop came 6♠5♠3♦. The 2♦ turn left Garcia drawing to one of his over cards or a straight card for the chop, and the Q♠ river paired his queen to collect the double.
