Heads-Up Play Is No Laughing Matter -- Or Is It?

The commentators are spending most of their time making jokes about the word "check." These players are from the Czech Republic, and they eat Rice Chex or Corn Chex for breakfast. Then they talk about hockey, because the players can receive fouls for checking.

Many different ways of saying there's a lot of checking.

Hand Updates?

There aren't any interesting hands to report. Really. The story right now is in the chip counts, because these two players are playing most of these pots for the minimum.

Hand #197

Hand #197 - After a flop of {J-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}, both players check. The turn card is the {9-Spades}, Davis bets, and Baruch calls. The river card is the {Q-Spades}, and both players check. Davis shows {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}, and Baruch mucks. The holecam shows that Baruch held {8-Spades}{4-Spades}.
