The action was opened by Vincent Rubianes in the cutoff seat, which prompted the small blind to shove all in. Rubianes then called out of turn, putting in chips too quick for the big blind to make their decision. That player ended up folding and Rubianes' call stood.

Rubianes: {a-Diamonds} {k-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Hearts} {j-Clubs}

The board ran out {4-Diamonds} {3-Spades} {k-Clubs} {10-Spades} {8-Diamonds} and Rubianes took another hand down to see himself solidify his spot at the top of the counts.

Rubianes Rising

[user162117]

We came to Vincent Rubianes with a flop showing {a-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {q-Diamonds} and Rubianes in a hand with one opponent. The play was checked to Rubianes and he bet 12,800. The checking player then threw in a raise to 27,000 and Rubianes kind of shrugged as he made the call.

The {5-Hearts} turn saw Rubianes' opponent lead this time, firing out 40,000. Rubianes then gave another little shrug and announced the all in. The cards went into the muck and Rubianes took the hand down.
