Roupe Takes a Small Hit
Level 13
: 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
Action folded to Daryl Roberts on the button and he put in a raise to 6,200. Tom Roupe, who was sitting on a massive stack, responded by moving all in from the small blind. The player in the big quickly folded, and Roberts, who had 59,300 total, seemed tortured as to what to do. He thought long and hard, often shifting in his chair, before calling off.
"Good luck," Roupe offered.
Roupe: 
Roberts: 
It was a classic race, and Roberts was looking to hold. The 
in the window made it seem as if Roupe was going to chip up even more, but then it was followed by the 
. Roberts flopped a set and locked up the double when the 
appeared on the turn. The meaningless 
was put out on the river, and Roupe counted out the chips to pay off his opponent.
