Nobody's on Their Bike... Yet

[user75032]

We love Tony G -- and not just because he pays our invoices. He's a fun guy to watch in a poker tournament. We caught him in a hand with Howard Lederer. Heading to sixth street, the G had three clubs on board, (X-X) / {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

. "One more club," he said.

"One more club," Lederer agreed. It was not a club for the G; he drew the {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

. Lederer drew the club himself, showing (X-X) / {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{8-Hearts}

{2-Spades}

{2-Clubs}

. He bet, and Tony called.

"Are you drawing at me?" Lederer asked.

"I'm not sure," Tony replied, drawing chuckles from the table and the rail. Both players checked the river, with Tony announcing, "Queens up." Lederer showed down {K-?}

{K-?}

{9-?}

{8-?}

in the hole for kings up.

"See, that's friendship," Tony said.

"Thank you," Lederer replied.
