Rentes Allergic to Chips

[user66118]

No-Limit Hold'em:

We pick up the action on the river in another big pot involving Chris Rentes. This time he is tangled up with Jonathan Tamayo. The board reads {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

{2-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

{K-Hearts}

{4-Diamonds}

. On the river, Rentes puts in a bet of 12,000. Tamayo raises to 65,000, and Rentes goes into the tank.

He asks, "Why so big?" but his opponent remains silent. Finally, Rentes does make the call.

Tamayo slams down {5-?}

{5-?}

{6-?}

, pounds the rail and yells "Ship it!" Rentes stares at the nuts and ships a good chunk of his stack across the table.
