and both men checked. The

Former GUKPT winner Mazhar Nawab, for example, has been located. He just check-called 1,200 on an

As both players watched the felt intently, a cruel king hit the flop to virtually secure Sequela the pot. A blank turn and river sealed the deal, and victory was his.
His defeated opponent, meanwhile, was fuming like petrol, removing his hat from his head and almost throwing it... but eventually resisting. After mumbling various profanities under his breath, he eventually departed, leaving a jubilant Sequela to add more chips to his now 35,000 stack.
