"I'll Show You Everytime!"

Matthew Pitt

Level 19 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Jonathan D'Souza has offered his table mates the chance to see his cards anytime they ask.

We just saw Jared Jaffee open to 12,000 from under the gun and Myro Garcia make it 40,000 from his seat in the small blind. D'Souza was the big blind and he moved all in. Jaffee folded and Garcia's cards also hit the muck.

Garcia said something inaudible to D'Souza and D'Souza replied,

"I told you, I will always show you my cards if you want to see them!"

"Ahhh..." he said, obviously confused by the move put on by Schwarmann. "What?"

Eventually, Park elected to surrender the hand, and when he tossed his cards away Schwarmann immediately tabled the with a flourish, showing the stone cold bluff for all to see.

"Nice hand," said Park, while Schwarmann's friends along the rail whooped it up in support.
