Rudolph Shoves the River

Level 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Action was heads up with 150,000 in the middle and {5-Clubs}{2-Spades}{3-Hearts} on the board when Brunno Botteon was contemplating a 190,000 bet from Christian Rudolph. Botteon raised to 330,000 and Rudolph called to see {2-Hearts} on the turn.

Rudolph fired 140,000 at the turn and Botteon called.

The river was {4-Spades} and Botteon shoved his last 365,000. Botteon went into the tank for several minutes, but he eventually gave up the pot.

Rudolph had a small supporting rail and it may have encouraged him to show {7-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for just a pair of fours.

"The fours were probably good," Jonathan Little said with a laugh. "Sick value."

Action was heads up with around 250,000 in the pot and {2-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{10-Spades} on the board when Jonathan Little check-called what looked like a 135,000 bet from Maria Konnikova. The turn was {a-Diamonds}.

Little checked once more on the turn and then called when Konnikova fired another 200,000. The river was {4-Clubs}.

Both players checked the river and Little turned over {a-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} to take the pot with aces and fives. Konnikova tossed the losing hand in the muck.

The action was picked up in a pot of nearly 500,000 on a board showing {9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{9-Hearts}. Vicente Delgado checked from the big blind over to Maria Konnikova in early position who bet out 325,000. Delgado took a moment before moving all in for 825,000 total and Konnikova quickly called.

Vicente Delgado: {k-Clubs}{7-Hearts}
Maria Konnikova: {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

Konnikova flopped the world with a flush draw and straight draw but was slightly behind the two pair of Delgado. The river came the {7-Spades} and the full house for Delgado scored the massive pot to rocket his stack up the leaderboard.
