Presenting... The Thorn!

Livello 7 : 150/300, 25 ante

As we were walking through the field, a player at Nam Le's table motioned for us to come watch the action. His name is Robert "The Thorn" Rosengarten and he seems to be one of the most enthusiastic players in today's field. While most of the players are quiet and subdued, Rosengarten has his table in stitches.

While we were standing nearby, Rosengarten pointed to his friend on the rail explaining that he was his "agent" to which the table chuckled. He also pointed to the stage where the remaining bracelets are displayed in glass boxes and told us "You can even go touch my box up there!" no doubt referring to the one for this event which he plans on winning.

After the next hand was dealt, a player in middle position raised to around 600, Nam Le called, and then Rosengarten declared (loudly) "I've waited six years for this!" and pushed all his remaining chips into the pot. Action folded back around to the original raiser who called Rosengarten's all in. Nam Le debated for a bit before deciding to fold.

Rosengarten: {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

Rosengarten's queens were ahead and the flop came {q-Spades}{10-Clubs}{5-Spades} giving him a set, but also giving the other player a gutshot straight draw. The turn was the {3-Diamonds} and Rosengarten said "I can't look!" and turned away before the river card was dealt. When the dealer put out the {k-Spades} on the river, the table let out an "ooooh" seemingly just to throw Rosengarten off, and he turned around to see that he had indeed won the pot.

He now sits with around 10,000 in chips.
