Brad Ruben completed Alex Livingston's bring-in and was met with a two-bet from Brian Yoon. Livingston folded and Ruben moved in the rest of his remaining 260,000 chips.
By seventh street, Ruben had improved to a pair of fours, but still trailed Yoon's pair of queens. Yoon exposed his final card first, which brought him no help, while Ruben made a second pair of sevens to stay alive and double up.
