Slick Meets the Gunslinger
![[user253757]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Jesse Sylvia opened to 28,000 from under the gun and Maurice Hawkins three-bet to 69,000, with the action folding around to Sylvia after the pressure play.
Sylvia decided to take a flop and he flatted the reraise, bringing the 
to the table. He checked to Hawkins and watched as four of the red T25000 chips were tossed into the middle. Not long after that Sylvia went for the kill, moving all in for 330,000 more and putting Hawkins to the test.
Hawkins asked for a count and then stood up to perch on his knee, talking himself through the hand.
"Why didn't you shove preflop?" he asked rhetorically, before directing his own answer at Sylvia. "Because you knew I'd snap you off."
Hawkins then uncapped his cards and showed his snapping hand - 
- before beginning every poker player's most common complaint, wondering why he had to have big slick so many times when baby card boards hit the felt.
