Cross Chips Up

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Valerie Cross opened to 14,000 from early position and a player to her immediate left re-raised to 29,500. The action folded around back to Cross, who asked how much her opponent had behind (160,000) and made the call.

Flop: {5-Hearts}{5-Spades}{3-Diamonds}

Cross checked, prompting a 32,500 bet from her opponent. Cross called.

Both players checked the {4-Diamonds} turn. However, when the {2-Diamonds} hit the river, Cross' opponent checked and it was Cross who took initiative, leading out for 52,000. Her opponent folded.

Cross is up to 295,000
