Stand Up Trick Works for Criado

Level 25 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Jose Criado shoved for 1,350,000 from under the gun and Leo Jubien re-shoved with a covering stack from the cutoff, folding out all other players to leave Criado at risk.

Jose Criado: K?10? All in
Leo Jubien: A?K?

Criado was dominated against a bigger king and found no help on the 3?J?9? flop. By the 4? turn he was already getting up from his seat to make his exit but the 10? river gave him a much-needed pair of tens to score a full double up at Jubien's expense.
