The Life of Brian

MarcC

'I knew the eight was coming!'

Brian Townsend just took a step back in the right direction. He reraised a player preflop and then led out for a 4,000 bet on a {8-Spades}

{8-Spades}

{3-Hearts}

{8-Clubs}

flop.

The bet was called before the turn came {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

and Townsend check-called his opponent's all-in bet of 20,000. Townsend turned over {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

for flopped trips and his opponent showed {A-?}

{A-?}

{10-?}

for, errr, air.

The all-in player rivered a {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

but it was no good and he heads out the door. Townsend nearing 70,000 again.
