Joke Fail - Seat One

Jay Boyes opens from MP before BB three-bets, Boyes four-bets, BB shoves and Boyes calls.

BB -- {K-?} {K-?}
Boyes -- {Q-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}

The board ran {J-Clubs} {K-Clubs} {4-Hearts} {9-Spades} {10-Spades}. A set on the flop looked good for the BB before Boyes hit runner-runner straight to double to 40,000 and left his opponent crippled.

A player in seat one then opened his mouth and joked " Why do we even play this game? Oh yeah, because sometimes you hit a ten!"

No one else at the table seemed to find this mistimed joke funny.
