"Thank You Jesus!"

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Gabriel Abusada was in a four-way three-bet pot where all players had paid 15,000 preflop.

The flop came down {6-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} and it checked around to the player on the button. He pushed all-in for 45,000 and Gabriel Abusada pushed all in as well for his final 12,700. Another player called and the fourth player folded his hand.

Abusada was pacing back and forth through the Amazon purple section when he had to open up his hand and the other players already did. The player on the button was holding {A-Spades}{A-Hearts} and the third player in the hand had {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts}. When Abusada came back to the table he didn't want to open up his hand, but after a couple seconds he opened up {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}.

The dealer completed the {6-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} board with the {5-Diamonds} turn and {4-Diamonds} river and Abusada jumped up and started screaming around the entire purple section in the Amazon room.

"Thank you Jesus! Oh my god, I'm back. Thank you, Jesus, thank you!"

The table was surrounded by cameras and a lot of players stood up from their chairs to check out what just happened. The player with aces won the side pot and Abusada kept yelling "Thank you, Jesus!" around the room.
