Sitbon Doubles Through Ruggeri

Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

With around 15,000 in the pot on a board of 4?6?6?5?, Julien Sitbon checked and Umberto Ruggeri bet 6,000. Sitbon sat motionless for a while, then shoved for 18,000. Ruggeri called quickly.
Julien Sitbon: 7?3?
Umberto Ruggeri: 8?8?
Sitbon had turned a straight, which left Ruggeri drawing thin to win the pot. The Q? river was safe for Sitbon, which meant he doubled up, and Ruggeri took a small hit to his stack.
