Ge Saved by the River

Level 8 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Three-handed on a flop of 243, Ara Melkisetian bet 8,000 from middle position before Yingrui Ge moved all in for 40,500 in the cutoff. Iulian-Andrei Bleau called in the big blind and Melkisetian got out of the way.

Yingrui Ge: JJ
Iulian-Andrei Bleau: 43

Bleau had the lead with two pair as the 8 came on the turn. The river, though, was the J and Ge made a set to earn a double up.
