"No," said Mitchell. "During the EPT Main Event in the second level someone offered to pay me €200 to see my hand. I did it and took the money and he busted me later that level."
A beat of silence.
"Wow," boomed Kabrhel. "That is a great story. Everyone needs to hear that story."
Laughing, he turned to the media.
"Make sure you get that. Write it down. PokerNews, seriously, get that story," he continued.

"Seriously. If you are normal you will post it."
Well, Mr. Kabrhel, it seems we are indeed normal. Cool story, bro.
