Marquez Moves up the 1C Leaderboard
Ana Marquez min-raised to 16,000 under the gun, then Emad Ghadamian three-bet for 40,000 on the button. Action folded back to Marquez, who four-bet for 120,000, which Ghadamian called.
On the flop of A♠10♣10♦, Marquez led for 75,000 and was called. The turn was the 8♣ and both players checked. On the K♣ river, Marquez bet 375,000 and was again called. Her K♥K♦ had rivered a full house to beat Ghadamian's A♥K♠.
That pot gave Marquez about 2 million and put her atop the leaderboard, leaving Ghadamian with 572,000.
