Toothpick Swinging

[user135779]

Toothpick: still chewin'

On a flop that read {4-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

{3-Hearts}

{9-Diamonds}

, an opponent led out for 600 into Antonis 'Toothpick Tony' Kambouroglou who made the call.

Kambouroglou then called the opponent's bet of 900 on the turn of the {j-Diamonds}

{j-Diamonds}

and the bet of 1,300 when the dealer produced the {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

on the river.

The dealer motioned to the player to turn up his cards, but the player appeared confused, not aware of the "first aggressor" rule. Eventually, he rolled up {a-?}

{a-?}

{k-?}

but was no good against Kambouroglou's {5-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

{5-Clubs}

.

Kambouroglou moved up 29,000 after that hand, but then shrunk to 11,000 in chips after Emad Tatouh doubled up to 25,000 against when his pocket kings hit a set on a {8-?}

{8-?}

{4-?}

{k-?}

{q-?}

{2-?}

board against 'The Toothpick' who held pocket aces.
