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".
