"Can I Re-Raise?"
When we arrived at Table 357, Aubin Cazals was all in. There was a raise in front from James Demartini, and the action was on John Virtue, who asked the dealer if he could put in a re-raise. The dealer nodded, "yes," but Vritue didn't announce his bet, and just threw in an oversized chip in. By rule, it was a call.
"Can I re-raise?" Demartini asked.
The dealer was about to answer, but Demartini started laughing.
"I'm just kidding," he told him. "I call."
The flop was 
, and Virtue led out. Demartini called. Virtue led again when the turned, Demartini called, and the 
completed the board. Virtue bet, and Demartini called.
Virtue rolled over 
for a pair of aces, Demartini mucked, and Cazals tabled his hand, but all we caught was the 
.
"Bet you liked that flop," Virtue told Cazals, who left quickly.
We assume that that means Cazals had a second heart, but we'll never know for sure.

Bardah Can't Find a Fold
"You have queen-jack suited," Ronnie Bardah said moments ago.
The board read 
, and Vladimir Shchmelev had a bet laying out in front of him. Bardah was in the tank.
"Queen-jack," Bardah echoed.
Bardah eventually called, and Shchemelev turned over - you guessed it - . Bardah mucked his hand, and stood up to let off some steam. He said something about "having aces," which means he was very far ahead before the turn.
"I usually muck there," Bardah announced when he returned to the table. "I usually save 4K like a G."
