"I Know It Was Crap"

Jesse Rios - Yeah, I played 10-6 suited. So what?
Jesse Rios - Yeah, I played 10-6 suited. So what?
We caught up with Jesse Rios just as he doubled up to 55,000.

Rios, who called a preflop raise of 2,200 from the button with {6-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} said he knew the hand was was horrible but, "I just had a feeling about it." When the flop came {Q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}, Rios moved all in for 21,400 and got check-called by a player in middle position holding {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}.

When the board finished {3-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}, Rios' instincts proved right as he made his flush and doubled to 55,000.
