Rivero Spikes

Level 19 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Alexandre Rivero opted to move all in for 133,000 from under the gun, and the action folded around to Matt Schulte, who asked for a count, before making the call. The button and blinds folded, before both players tabled their cards.

Schulte: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Rivero: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

Rivero was behind, and found no help, when the flop came down {2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Hearts}. However, he spiked the {Q-Clubs} to take the lead, and held as the {5-Diamonds} completed the board.
