Balogh is (Somewhat) Honest With Schneiders
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Tamas Balogh and Felix Schneiders were heads-up on a board of 6♣5♦3♠4♠Q♣ and nearly 20,000 in the pot. Balogh then bet 10,000 from middle position.
"Do you have seven-eight? Sevens?" Schneiders asked Balogh, who replied that he had seven-eight. Schneiders then called.
Balogh showed 9♠7♠ for a straight and Schneiders mucked. "Good man," tablemate Charles St. Germain said.
"Honest man," another tablemate added.
"Not 100 percent honest. He said he had seven-eight, which was a lie," Schneiders joked as Balogh took in the pot.
