"I Was Calling"

Level 15 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Byron Kaverman
Byron Kaverman

Three players took a flop of {8-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{9-Spades}, including Byron Kaverman, Francois Safieddine, and Brandon Meyers. Kaverman checked, Safieddine fired out 15,000, and Meyers called. Kaverman check-raised to 43,000, and only Meyers called.

The turn was the {3-Spades}, Kaverman led out for 57,000, and Meyers raised to 125,000. Kaverman tanked for quite some time, then called.

The second the {3-Clubs} completed the board, Kaverman uttered, "Check."

"Did he check?" Meyers asked the dealer.

"King-high," Kaverman said, thinking Meyers checked as well.

He showed {k-Spades}{2-Hearts}.

"It's good," Meyers sighed.

A few seconds passed, then Ognjen Sekularac pointed out that Meyers didn't check. Kaverman looked shocked.

"It's ok," Meyers said. "I was going to check anyway."

There was then discussion at the table as to what would've happened had Meyers shoved.

"I was calling," Kaverman said with a grin.
