Derwiche Gives Muller a Friday Discount
Level 9
: 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Curtis Muller bet 35,000 from the button on a flop of 9♠K♥A♦ and Imad Derwiche called in the cutoff.
The turn was the Q♣ and Derwiche asked how much was in the pot. He was told 127,000 and then bet 100,000. "Discount, my friend," he told Muller.
Muller called and the 3♦ fell on the river. Derwiche again asked what was in the pot, then bet 300,000 into the 327,000 pot. "Discount today. It's Friday," he added.
Muller went deep into the tank as he considered the decision. "I will show you two cards if you fold. Discipline, my friend," Derwiche said.
Muller eventually folded and Derwiche allowed him to choose two of his cards. Muller happened to pick J♣10♦, showing that Derwiche had made the nut straight.
"I told you discipline," Derwiche said.
