Rheem Sweats Paint

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Facing a raise to 3,000; Chino Rheem, fresh off a recent runner up, smushed the pot to 11,000 from the small blind with less than half that behind. His opponent called.

The flop rolled the 4♠4♦4♣ and Rheem pushed the rest of his chips forward, quickly getting a call from his opponent who showed the 7♣7♦K♦8♥ for fours full of sevens.

Considering the state of things, Rheem said, "I haven't looked! Let me sweat..." He peeled each card individually showing 5♦10♥J♣ and he peeled the last one slowing saying he needed four-across or paint... turning over the J♥ for a better full house before the inconsequential turn and river came.
