"You Suck Worse than Tremors"

We can't say for sure when the money got into the pot, but when we walked up, Matt Graham had {A-Hearts} {K-Spades} turned up in front of him, and he had one of his opponents across the table all in. The other player was in good shape, showing {A-Diamonds} {A-Spades}. That lead wouldn't last long, however.

The dealer ran out a board of {10-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {7-Spades} {Q-Spades} {8-Spades}, making Graham the Broadway straight and eliminating the other player from the field.

Table mate Gavin Smith couldn't resist the chance to needle Graham: "You thought you were trapping him. You suck," Smith said. After another few moments, he added, "You suck worse than Tremors." The table chuckled at Smith's movie reference.

Graham may suck, but his stack shows 17,000 chips. That part definitely doesn't suck.
