Fielder Versus Getzwiller
Sean Getzwiller raised from under the gun to 145,000. However, when action folded around to Jeff Fielder in the big blind and he asked how much the raise was, Getzwiller responded, "One hundred twenty thousand." It appeared as though he raised more than he had wanted. This started a string of talking between the two players as the hand progressed. And while much of it drew laughs from the table, it was mostly inaudible to us.
In the end, the board read 
and Fielder led into Getzwiller for 75,000 on the river. Getzwiller called immediately and Fielder tabled 
. "Thanks for making it cheap," Getzwiller said as he flashed a King.
Later, Fielder admitted he was just trying to get an extra big blind. "Well, you got it," Getzwiller said with a little more than a hint of sarcasm.
