Miholich, Yockey Talk Sports, Play Poker

David Salituro

Level 10

Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Kyle Miholich reraised in the big blind and Bryce Yockey called in the cutoff.

"Boo Dodgers. Go Padres," Miholich, wearing a Fernando Tatis Jr. jersey, said to Yockey as they went heads-up to the first draw.

"I don't even watch baseball. I'm a Chargers fan," Yockey replied.

"Boo Chargers," Miholich added.

"You're wearing a San Diego jersey," Yockey said.

"They're dead to us," Miholich replied.

"They're dead to everybody. They're the Chargers," Yockey said.

After their sports talk, Miholich ended up taking one while Yockey drew two. Miholich then bet and Yockey called.

Both players took one and Miholich bet again. Yockey then raised and Miholich called.

Miholich took one more, while Yockey stood pat. Miholich bet all in and Yockey called with a jack.

Miholich, though, had a 7-6-4-3-2 to win the pot and double up.
