Cooler Sends Decesare to the Rail
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Gerard Rubiralta raised from middle position to 10,000 before seeing Shaun Decesare three-bet to 37,000 from the cutoff. Action folded back to Rubiralta, who moved all in for 240,000. Decesare wasn't thrilled with the situation but made the call.
Decesare was the shorter of the two stacks, all in for roughly 130,000.
Shaun Decesare: Q♠Q♦ 
Gerard Rubiralta: A♠A♥
The board ran out 2♣8♠10♠6♠J♠, and although Decesare made a queen-high flush, Rubiralta held the crucial ace of spades to send his opponent to the rail.
