Rodrigues Scores Huge Double Through Disbelieving Gupta
Nível 25
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Michael Rodrigues raised to 100,000 on the button and got three-bet by Ashish Gupta in the big blind. Rodrigues called to see the flop.
It came 9♦9♠8♥ and Gupta led out for 150,000. Rodrigues then potted it to 1,175,000, sending Gupta into the tank.
After a couple of minutes, Gupta moved all in and Rodrigues called, creating another near four million chip pot.
Michael Rodrigues: 9♥6♣5♠4♥
Ashish Gupta: A♣A♦K♥2♠
Gupta told Rodrigues he didn't think he had a nine, but indeed he did. The 7♠ river brought Gupta some hope for half the pot with a low, but the 8♦ double-paired the board, sending the massive pot to Rodrigues, who is now poised to add significantly more points in his chase for WSOP Player of the Year.
