Thank Goodness For those Rebuy Chips

When we caught up with this table, the player in the cutoff had made it 200 to go and Matt Marafioti in the big blind raised it to 900. The player in the cutoff made the call and they were off to the flop.

Flop: {6-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

Marafioti moved all of his remaining chips in the middle (less the three red rebuy chips) and his opponent made the call.

Marafioti: {8-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}
Opponent: {7-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{4-Hearts}

"You'll probably hit," Marafioti's opponent said, "The way I've been running."

The {7-Spades} fell on the turn, and the {j-Hearts} hit the river, filling Marafioti's opponent's boat.

"I'll take all my rebuy chips," Marafiotti said to the dealer.
