Daniel Cruz (Boca Raton, FL)

Daniel Cruz (Boca Raton, FL) has come from behind twice while all-in and at risk, and Jose De Arriba isn't very pleased with it.  Cruz was short at shoved in late position for 49,000, only to see Joshua Coates call, and De Arriba re-shove (for over 240,000).  Coates would get out of the way, but De Arriba's K♥ K♠ would fall to the K♣ 8♣ of Cruz, after the runner-runner club finish to make a flush.

About an hour later, Cruz would shove for 110,000 over an open from De Arriba (after one player flatted), and De Arriba would once again re-shove.  The unknown third party would fold, and this time Cruz's A♠ K♠ would spike a king on the turn against the Q♥ Q♦ of De Arriba.

Cruz has chipped up to 240,000 from those two hands alone, while De Arriba takes the punishment, still sitting with over 200,000.
