Cross Spikes Queens, Eliminates Another

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Valerie Cross raised to 8,000 from early position and was met with an all-in raise to 30,000 from the cutoff. Cross asked for a count and then slid out a call.

Cross: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Spades}{J-Hearts}

The {8-Spades}{4-Hearts}{5-Spades}{9-Hearts} board wasn't looking too promising for Cross, but a {Q-Spades} hit the river, pairing her hand and sending her opponent to the rail.

Cross' stack is now among the chip leaders at 325,000.
