Barsaloux Goes Runner-Runner to Crack a Set
Level 7
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
In a heads-up pot on a board of 8♣3♣A♥, a player checked and Suzzanne Barsaloux bet 5,000.
The player check-jammed a stack of around 25,000 and Barsaloux called after some thought.
Opponent: 3♠3♦
Suzzanne Barsaloux: A♦9♣
Barsaloux had run into a set to have her top pair drawing nearly dead, but the 9♠ changed things as she had potential to crack the set. Those at the table then gasped as the 9♦ rolled off on the river as the opponent was sent to the rail in sickening fashion.
"It was very lucky," said Barsaloux, who may have gotten some of that luck from the "Wow Girl" card protector in front of her.
