Mazabow and Rann on the Rail

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Ariel Mazabow
Ariel Mazabow

Michael Cupido took a very aggressive line when he clicked it back on the 862 flop when he faced a bet by Ariel Mazabow, a raise by Rayhaan Adam and then check-three-bet himself. Mazabow only called and Adam folded.

Cupido jammed the 4 turn for 800,000 effective and Mazabow snap-called.

Ariel Mazabow: 88 All in
Michael Cupido: KQ

The river brought the 5 for the flush and Mazabow busted in spectacular fashion.

"If he clicks it back on the flop, I am folding but when the heart comes on the turn I was getting it in," an ecstatic Cupido said after his vidid celebration.

The UK's James Rann also busted but in a more standard fashion. He was all-in for 500,000 with the AK from the small blind and Jon Persent looked him up with the KK.

"The ace of spades is a good card," Rann said right before the flop came A74 flop. Persent was down to the case king and got it with the K turn. Rann needed another ace and missed on the 4 river.
