"Wow! What! Insane... The Sickest Fold I've Seen This Year"
Finding a good fold can be just as important to winning a tournament as winning a monster.
And Christian Rudolph just made what Henry Kilbane called "the sickest fold I've seen this year".
He raised preflop and was called by Ravi Sheth's pocket eights.
Those eights went on to make bottom set on a flop that also made Rudolph top pair.
Sheth bet out just over half pot and Rudolph looked like he was going to call before changing his mind and mucking.
Kilbane, on live stream commentary, went off saying, "Wow! What! Insane... That's the sickest fold I've seen this year. Ridiculous. World class... Ladies and gentlemen, I don't care where Rudolph finishes, that's the fold of the tournament. It's ridiculous. I'm really curious to know if it was something to do with the sizing."
And despite action moving onto the next hand, Kilbane went back to the previous hand saying again, "That is just a world-class fold."
