Ricardo Mendoza

Dantram Huynh opened to 80,000 and was called by Ricardo Mendoza and Matt Bradford from the blinds.

The flop came {8-Clubs}{a-Spades}{6-Hearts} and the action checked through. On the turn {2-Diamonds}, action checked to Huynh and she fired out a bet. Mendoza moved all-in, Bradford folded and Huynh called.

Dantram Huynh: {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Ricardo Mendoza: {a-Hearts}{j-Clubs}

Mendoza had the better kicker and that held through the river as Mendoza doubled.
