Misaghian Plays Sheriff

With the player in the big blind was away from the table Mazyar Misaghian decided to play sheriff, warning the table in no uncertain terms that any attempt to steal the free 400 on offer would be met with swift retribution.

Apparently, Pranay Kapoor and Akash Chandrashekhar were not listening however, with Kapoor making it 900 to go from early position and Chandrashekhar making the call in the hi-jack.

Misaghian splashed out a sizable re-raise, along with some stern words.

“I told you not to steal that 400,’ Misaghian lectured the pair “now look what you’ve made me do, I warned you what would happen with me on the button…”

After being ear-bashed for 30-seconds or so Kapoor made the fold but Chandrashekhar seemed keen to continue.

“You’ve made my friend [Kapoor] look bad now,’ joked Chandrashekhar, “I might have to defend his honor.”

After tanking for a couple of minutes Chandrashekhar moved all-in for close to 45,000 and was beaten into the pot by Misaghian, who it seemed, had a had to go along with all his trash talk.

Unfortunately for Chandrashekhar, his pocket pair was dominated by Misaghian’s bigger pair and the Indian player received no help when the board ran out .
