"No Gamble, No Future"

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante
Marco Rodrigues
Marco Rodrigues

In one of the final hands of the day, it was Paul Berende who limped in for 600 at a table that has seen crazy action all day. Jin Yong and Marcel Goldenbelt also limped along before Marco Rodrigues made it 10,000 straight. Back on Berende, he limp-reraised and slid a large tower of T-5,000 chips forward.

Yong and Goldenbelt quickly got out of the way but Rodrigues had a different plan.

"Gamble." he said, determined, and instantly flicked in a calling chip. The call was for his entire stack of 59,025.

Marco Rodrigues: {2-Hearts}{2-Spades}
Paul Berende: {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}

Berende was in a commanding spot to claim a massive overnight chip lead but fate would tell a different story as the flop came {5-Hearts}{8-Spades}{2-Clubs}. The "oohs", "aahs" and "that's so sick" at the table increased in volume as the dealer revealed the {2-Diamonds} on the turn to give Rodrigues quads, making the {A-Diamonds} river inconsequential.

"It's a Chinese thing," Yong lectured after the hand. "No gamble, no future!"
