Level 4
: 150/300, 0 ante
We get to the table and Chris Tryba is all in for his last 25 in chips on a 
flop. A woman sitting in Seat 9 raised it and Konstantin Puchkov re-raised. The woman made it four bets and Puchkov called. The turn is the 
and the woman says with vigor "I bet" and tosses the bet into the middle. Puchkov called. She repeated her actions on the 
river and again Puchkov called.

Antonio Esfandiari has recently been moved to a new table and has struck up a game of "Lodden Thinks." The most recent question was how long a player at the table to Antonio's immediate right, takes to do his hair in the morning.
