Rines Doubles Thru Alberto
Level 11
: 800/1,500, 1,500 ante
Kevin Rines limped early, then George Alberto made it 7,800 to go from the small blind. Rines gave it some thought, then called.
On the flop of ![]()
![]()
both players checked, and repeated that action on the
turn. When the
completed the board, Alberto tossed in 16,000. Rines announced he was all-in and Alberto wanted a count — 45,400 total.
Rines stood up and Alberto did likewise, saying "you don't have the flush," then "this would be a sick call". He finally tossed in the chips and showed ![]()
for the rivered straight. Rines had rivered the flush with his ![]()
and doubled up. Alberto was still in good shape, although he probably regrets making that "sick call".
