DiMascio Gets Emotional Over Ace on the River
Dong Chen raised to 380,000 under the gun, leaving himself just one 5,000 chip behind, and Paul DiMascio reshoved in the hijack. The table folded back around to Chen who checked the clock to see how many players were left before tossing in his last chip.
Dong Chen: 9♠9♣ 
Paul DiMascio: A♣K♣
"Please," DiMascio pleaded going to the 7♠6♥3♥ flop. "Oh God," he added as he missed the 4♦ turn, but the A♥ river gave him top pair and the bustout.
"Yes!" he shouted out, lifting his arms into the air. "Sorry, I get a little too emotional," he said to his tablemates while Chen was sent to the rail.
"I get emotional, too. You're Spanish, you're bred to be emotional," tablemate Richard Buckingham said to Juan Carlos Vecino.
"But I don't show it at the table," Vecino added.
