The Fastest Poker Player in the West
Our new chip leader, Alex Wice, is the fastest poker player in the West. This boy just does not mess about and every decision is made very quickly indeed. Interestingly his speedy actions seem to rub off on his opponents who seem to be calling, folding and raising with the same speed at Wice.
Wice raised to 10,000 and Morgan Angerfors moved all-in for 83,000. Wice called and flipped over his Aces before the Dealer had worked out what the hell was going on. Angerfors was in a world of hurt when he flipped over pocket Queens. Emile Petit then made Angerfors' day even worse when he told him that he also had a queen so he was drawing to one out in the deck. The dealer then found that one out as the first card placed onto the flop was in fact the only Queen in the deck. The rest of the cards were irrelevant as Angerfors doubled up through Wice.
In the next hand Wice again threw in two chips worth 5,000 each and this time his opponent called. The flop was and Wice flicked out 10,000 before I believe the last card was even flopped. His opponent called very quickly. Then in a flash of lightning usually reserved for Usain Bolts trainers the was placed on the felt, Wice had checked, his opponent had bet 20,000 and Wice's cards were in the muck.
