Korfman Dumps on de Melo

Tony Korfman, notoriously inappropriate hothead and author of Texas Hold'em: Tournaments, Cash Games, and Embarrassing Social Gas, raised to 1,700. After a minute, Fatima de Melo raised to 5,100 on the button. Korfman flatted, leaving de Melo about 13,000 behind. The flop fell {k-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{3-Hearts}, and Korfman tossed out 8,000. De Melo went into deep thought. She bit her finger and studied the board as ESPN's cameras swarmed the table. "You want to know what I have?" Korfman asked. "I have king-queen." She laughed. "Will you show?" He agreed, and she folded her pocket jacks face up, saying she'd put him on king-queen before he'd made that comment.

"I got nothing," Korman said, flipping up {5-Spades}{5-Clubs}. "That's sick," she said, sadly looking down at her remaining chips. Korfman just grinned at the cameras. Wonder if he factored TV-time equity into his play.
