Shark Attack

The Sharks
The Sharks
Kenneth Smith raised 18,000 preflop. Humberto Brenes reraised to 68,000. Smith called. Brenes picked up his mini-shark and started his usual hijinks. The shark has a flashing red light and Brenes was highlighting the felt where the dealer would spread out the flop.

The flop was {9-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}. Smith checked and Brenes stood up. He announced that he was all in and pulled out the shark once again. A large crowd gathered around the table as Smith went into the tank. He eventually folded and Humberto said, "I will show just one. Is that okay? Who is the king?"

He picked up one card and showed the {K-Spades} to the table. He picked up the other and flashed it to the rail and tables behind him. He tossed that into the muck. The dealer flipped it over and the rest of Table #67 got to see the {K-Hearts}.

"Who is the king?" Brenes screamed at the top of his lungs. "Humberto is the king!"

After that hand, Smith slipped to 210,000. Brenes increased his stack to 450,000.
