We arrived tableside to witness Thayer Rasmussen all in with against Dan Lu's .
Board:
"NO!" cried Andrew Teng, who was railing as Rasmussen doubled to 39,000. We naturally assumed from his horror at the river card that he was railing Lu, but we were wrong. "We would have gone and got food if that didn't happen," lamented Teng. He pointed out Luke "IWEARGOGGLES" Staudenmaier, also a short stack at the same table. "I'm sweating him to bust now. I've got one more shot."
And indeed Teng got his rather self-interested wish a few moments later, as Staudenmaier shoved the small blind with , only for the gent in the big blind to wake up with aces.
After folding in the small blind, Thayer Rasmussen was visited by his friends Andrew Teng and Carter King. Their presence was not welcomed however when a player faced with a decision turned and snapped at them.
"Can you go away or something?!?!?!"
Across the room Tom "durrrr" Dawn stopped in to see Jonathan Aguiar. This conversation ensued:
After spending some time open-shoving his short stack to little avail, Joe Sebok tried it again for his last 8,000 with in the cutoff. However, his heart must have sunk somewhat when the gentleman on the button made it 20,000 to go - only for Drew Crawford to push from the big blind. The button raiser snap-called for his whole 70,000 stack, and they were on their backs, 150,000 in the pot.
Sebok: as aforementioned
Button:
Crawford:
Board: bink!
Sebok and the unfortunate gent with the kings were left to make the long sad trudge to the payout desk. Crawford meanwhile is our new chip daddy on 220,000.
Jordan "iMsoLucky0" Morgan took a small hit to his stack moments ago.
Morgan opened for a little over 4,000 chips and a very short stack behind him called all in. Morgan's was ahead of the player's , but the board ran and the player successfully doubled.
When pushing the put to the player the dealer forgot grab the yellow T1,000 chips laying right in front of Morgan. Finally, after another play at the table pointed this error out, the chips were pushed to the winner.
"I should've grabbed it real quick," Morgan joked.
It's OK, Morgan won't miss those couple of chips seeing that he is still sitting with about 106,000 of them in front of him.
Yesterday we described the amiable Mr. Timothy "TJ" Boytor as a "self-pronounced redneck". He has had a word with us since, and we would like to amend that description.
In Boytor's own cheerful words:
"I ain't a self-pronounced redneck. I'm a self-pronounced proud redneck. It's different."
