Shimizu is the Card Whisperer
Level 15
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Nozumu Shimizu opened to 24,000 from middle position before Andrii Derzhypilskyi moved all in for 135,000.
Shimizu asked for a count and tossed the dealer a time bank card.
"Seven-eight, heart-heart," said Shimizu as he placed his cards on top of his stack. He bowed and turned his head so that his ear was hovering over them.
This got a laugh from the table, with Ole Schemion asking Shimizu if the cards speak to him. The latter agreed, and they must have told him to toss them away as he folded, awarding his opponent the pot.
