Juanda Gives A Little To Gain A Little

As fields go for EPT's, this one certainly looks to be amongst the richest in terms of the so-called 'big players'. There's not a table you can go by without seeing at least one winner of a bracelet or a major tournament and it's rare that you'll see a table without two.

John Juanda, last year's WSOPE winner, was staring at a {J-Spades} {4-Spades} {4-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} board, attempting to coax his opponent to go easy.

"You show, I show..." Juanda said, but his opponent bet 4,000. Juanda flipped {K-Spades} {10-Spades} for a missed flush draw with a turned gutshot and was rewarded by being allowed to see the {A-Spades} {A-Clubs} that his opponent had.
