Santiago Doesn't Fear The Bubble

Despite Annette Obrestrad hanging on for dear life with barely a chip and a chair, it didn't stop Alex Santiago from getting his last 36,000 chips into the middle preflop. Mike Leah had opened with a raise and he called the additional chips.

Leah: {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds}
Santiago: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}

The board fell {9-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{7-Spades}{2-Clubs}{Q-Spades} and Santiago fades the ace to double up to around 80,000. Leah slips to 92,000.
