Balaban Vaults up the Counts

Crown Poker Room regular Rosa Crea is out of the tournament. She moved all in for 1,300 from early position. One player called before Tim Balaban shoved all in for 6,275 from the cutoff. That folded the player in between Crea and Balaban, allowing them to open their hands.

Crea: {A-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds}
Balaban: {A-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds}

The board ran out {3-Clubs} {5-Hearts} {5-Spades} {A-Hearts} {10-Hearts}. Each player made aces and fives, but Balaban's kicker carried the day and sent Crea to the rail. Balaban's stack now sits at 8,950.
