Guttman Rivered
The action started with Michael “Sticky” Guttman opening to 3,000 from middle position. The player to his immediate left made the call as the rest of the table got out of the way. The flop fell 
and both players checked, as the 
came on the turn. Guttman instantly moved all in for his last 8,300 in chips, and waited patiently as his opponent agonised over his decision.
He eventually made the call and tabled his 
, but wasn’t happy when he saw Guttman’s 
. The river, however, brought the 
to shock Guttman’s opponent more than himself.
“I thought you had pocket nines,” said his opponent. “You checked the flop, so there was no way I could put you on a king or you would’ve bet it.”
“It’s ok,” replied Guttman. “I want you to call there.” Guttman was gracious in defeat as he stood up from the table and made his way to the rail.
