Chauskin Moans One In
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Natan Chauskin open-shoved for 51,000 under the gun. It folded to Jason Wheeler in the small blind, who called.
Natan Chauskin: K♦Q♦
Jason Wheeler: A♦K♥
"Every time, huh? Easy game," Chauskin said as he saw Wheeler's cards.
He flopped a bunch of outs on 10♦J♦2♣, however, and he completed his straight draw on the A♣ turn. The 5♥ river did not provide a chop, and Chauskin sat back down to rake in the chips.
"As soon as he started moaning, I knew I was going to lose," Wheeler stated. "The harder you moan, the more you win. It's one of the rules of poker."
"Well, I've never seen Ben moan, and he wins a lot in poker," Dietrich Fast replied in reference to Ben Heath, also present at the table.
"Well, of course it works both ways," Wheeler explained.
