Rines Doubles Thru Alberto

Level 11 : 800/1,500, 1,500 ante
Kevin Rines & George Alberto
Kevin Rines & George Alberto

Kevin Rines limped early, then George Alberto made it 7,800 to go from the small blind. Rines gave it some thought, then called.

On the flop of {10-Spades}{6-Spades}{4-Hearts} both players checked, and repeated that action on the {7-Hearts} turn. When the {3-Hearts} completed the board, Alberto tossed in 16,000. Rines announced he was all-in and Alberto wanted a count — 45,400 total.

Rines stood up and Alberto did likewise, saying "you don't have the flush," then "this would be a sick call". He finally tossed in the chips and showed {5-Spades}{5-Hearts} for the rivered straight. Rines had rivered the flush with his {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts} and doubled up. Alberto was still in good shape, although he probably regrets making that "sick call".
