Poker and Nothingness

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Ghassan El Hoss just shoved his short stack once more — this time with {Q-Spades}{J-Hearts} — and was up against Tobias Peters's {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}. El Hoss started to lean forward as if to leave his seat, but Jason Koon had some advice from across the table.

"Don't stand up yet," he suggested. Then came the board — {Q-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{J-Spades}{5-Clubs} — to give Hoss two pair and preserve his tourney life.

"Why do you say those weird things?" said Peters with a chuckle. "I don't think I caused that," answered Koon, and Peters quickly agreed.

"This game doesn't care," Koon continued. "It doesn't matter how much work you've done, how good of a person you are…."

With each player having kept his seat for another hand, the conversation continued.
