Kabrhel Versus The Wolf

Will Shillibier

Level 2 : 100/200, 25 ante

"I am The Wolf, my friend," said The Wolf after tangling with Martin Kabrhel on a king-high board, with a pair of fives. The Wolf tabled for trip fives seeing off the ace-king of Kabrhel.

"You are The Wolf!" said Kabrhel, "If I'd have known I would have folded pre-flop!"

The pair are well-known here in Rozvadov, and are sitted right next to one another here in the €5,300 High Roller.
