Fortuno Finds Fortunate River

Erick Torres

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Robert Fortuno shoved for his final 41,000 from the hijack and was called by Alan Leon in the small blind to be at risk.

Robert Fortuno: A♦4♦ All in
Alan Leon: A♠Q♦

"Come on diamonds," said Fortuna, who was well behind the better ace of Leon.

The flop gave Fortuno a gutshot to the wheel when the dealer fanned out 9♣2♦5♥.

Fortuno got his diamond draw when the 10♦ turn came, as he had plenty of outs to stay in the tournament.

His wish for a diamond came true when the K♦ hit the river as he slipped away from elimination.
