Something Tells Me He's Into Something Good

With the board reading {3-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{4-Spades}, Ernst Hermans led out for 14,200. His neighbor and opponent fingered his chips and stroked his handlebar mustache before making the call.

The river was the {J-Spades}, and after a long pause, Hermans fired again, this time to the tune of 23,200. Again, Mr. Handlebar made the call and showed {A-Diamonds}{10-Spades}, but Hermans had him pipped with {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}. He now has over 200,000.
