George Wins While Counting Money

Matthias De Meulder raised to 500 from the cutoff and received a call from Christopher George from the button. The blinds got out of the way and the two saw a flop of {2-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}.

De Meulder continued out for 625 and action was on George who was counting down a stack of $10,000 cash under the the table. George stopped to examine the board for a moment and then tossed out a call.

The turn was the {A-Spades} and De Meulder bet 1,050. George called on this street almost without missing a beat of counting down his brick of money.

The {Q-Spades} rivered and it went check-check. George tabled {A-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for a pair of aces and De Meulder mucked his hand. As the pot was pushed to George he went right back to thumbing through dozens of hundred dollar bills.
