Rubiralta Gets Back on Fan Before Table Breaks

Level 18 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

After Longmao Fan opened from the cutoff, Gerard Rubiralta three-bet him for the second time in a short span. Fan again called, and did so too for Rubiralta's bets of 25,000 on the QK4 flop and 65,000 on the 2 turn.

The two players then both checked the 10 river. Fan tabled J10 for a pair of tens, but Rubiralta was awarded the pot with K9 for a pair of kings.

As Rubiralta was pushed the pot, the floor came over to announce the breaking of the table, as several people had been eliminated in the meantime.
