Just Before the Break...

Dan "Wretchy" Martin opened to 350, Ryan Fair three-bet to 1,250 on the button, and Martin called. The flop came down {9-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}, and Martin check-called a 1,375-chip bet from Fair.

Both players checked the {10-Spades} on the turn, and Wretchy led for 1,800 after the {10-Clubs} fell on the river. Fair raised to 5,300, and Martin called. Fair opened up {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}, and Martin mucked.

"You guys are sick," Chino Rheem piped up.

"He has it every time," Martin added.
