Big Slick for Bathmanathan Provokes Extended Speech Play, Fold from Docherty

David Docherty raised to 2,200, only for the highly excitable Ganesh Bathmanathan on the button to enquire, "How much you got behind, boss?" The answer was around 15,000. "I'm all in."

Back to Docherty, who tanked up. There followed a probably rather off-putting monologue from Bathmanathan.

"You wanna call me? You seen what hands I've had. You wanna stay in, make the money at least, you been here from yesterday. I'll show if you fold."

Docherty remained in his tank for a long time, before eventually folding. Bathmanathan showed him {A-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}. "I'm not here to mess you about, man," Bathmanathan assured. "I want you to make the money, get your little something, go about your business." Docherty said not a word.
