"I'm Here to Uber-Gamble"

Tim "Tmay420" West just went all in with 3-4-5-6 and found himself up against a player holding A-A-Q-J double-suited. West flopped two pair, then turned a straight to stay alive.

West apologized to his opponent afterwards. "I'm just here to uber-gamble," West said, explaining that his brother was playing on a final table shortly, so he either wanted to double up and build a big stack or bust out early.
