Livingston Builds More Through Ruben
Razz
Alex Livingston: 6x4x3x/Ax9x7x5x
Brad Ruben: XxXxXx/7x2xJx7x
Brad Ruben raised Alex Livingston's completion and the Canadian called to see fourth street.
Ruben drew better and took the betting lead which got a call from Livingston. The lead switched on fifth, with Livingston now leading out, but this didn't dissuade Ruben who raised Livingston and then got a call.
On sixth street with Ruben pairing, Livingston bet again and got a call.
Livingston then checked seventh and Ruben checked back. Livingston showed a six-five, which was more than enough for the win as the pot was pushed his way as Ruben sent his cards to the muck.
Shortly after this hand, the duo battled again in a quick rematch that also saw Livingston win when Ruben bricked out on fourth and fifth and was forced to fold to bets from Livingston.
