No Nines for Tsokaridis
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Four-way to the J♦5♣3♦ flop, it checked to Paraskevas Tsokaridis in the hijack, who bet 600. Maria Konnikova was the only interested party, and she called under the gun.
Tsokaridis sized up to 2,700 on the 2♠ turn, seeing Konnikova check-call again.
"Nines any good?" Tsokaridis inquired.
The 9♠ river then completed the board. Konnikova could not help but laugh as she checked once more, prompting Tsokaridis to fire a bet of 7,500. Konnikova quickly folded, giving up on the pot.
"Show the nines," she said as she passed her cards to the dealer.
"If I had nines, I would 100 percent show," Tsokaridis promised.
