Xu Sends Santamaria to the Showers
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Qiang Xu opened from early position to 4,000 and got two callers before Gerard Carbo Santamaria squeezed all in for 23,000 from the blinds. Xu put in another raise, which forced the two callers to fold.
Gerard Carbo Santamaria: A♥J♣ 
Qiang Xu: A♠K♣
Santamaria was dominated, and needed to find a jack or he would need to make a trip to the rebuy desk before the end of Level 14.
The board ran out 9♦2♠6♠3♠5♦, keeping the Big Slick of Xu ahead the entire time. The pot was pushed to Xu and Santamaria was out.
