Rivera's Rags Turn to Riches

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Alex Rivera told us earlier he was playing any two cards, and he's sticking to that promise. On a flop of {4-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}, Rivera led out for 4,000 and his opponent raised to 14,000. Rivera called, and the {8-Spades} appeared on the turn. Rivera checked, and then raised all in after his opponent bet. The other player called and the cards were tabled.

Rivera: {3-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}
Opponent: {Q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

Rivera had turned two pair and he improved even further with the {3-Clubs} on the river, sending another player to the rail. We're now down to our final 20 in Event #2.
