The Chips Go Straight to Larsen


flop Allan Larsen bet 700 and Istvan Pap made the call. After both players had cautiously checked the
turn, Pap came out firing on the
river, to the tune of 1,000.A quick glance at his opponent, then at his chips, and Larsen reached out for a raise, a total of 2,375. He then rest his hand over his mouth and wore an expression that I can only desrcribe as someone with a bad hangover trying desperately not to vomit.
With his opponent remaining as still as water, Pap hesitated before finally making the call and tabling

. It wasn't good enough, though, as Larsen had rivered a straight with 
to lap up the pot.
