Rosenthal and Cupido Get it All-In

Mar 16, 2019

Michael Cupido opens the action and is three-bet all-in by David Rosenthal to 294,000. Cupido makes the call but when the cards are flipped on their backs, he is in bad shape with his tournament life on the line.

There’s no question it’s Rosenthal’s flop when he hits top set on Spade JDiamond QSpade 8. Only a couple of running combos will save him from hitting the rail. The turn is the Diamond A and now there are two aces in the deck that will bring Cupido back from the brink.

Unbelievably, the river is the Club A and Rosenthal looks understandably sick at the way the cards have runout. Cupido can’t believe his luck either and takes a small break from the table shortly after.

Michael Cupido – 595,000
David Rosenthal – 45,000
