Kabrhel is Already Making Friends

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Ethan Cahn raised to 8,000, followed by a raise to 40,000 from Martin Kabrhel. It folded back to Cahn and he responded with another raise to 120,000.

The rest of the interaction was largely Kabrhel, as follows:

"Very suspicious..."

"I could do it for Nick..." making reference to Nick Schulman who was also seated at this table. Schulman showed no amusement.

Cahn then lowered his head and refused to interact with Kabrhel, who shifted his focus to the dealer.

"120,000? Yah, you sure?"

The dealer assured him that the raise was correct.

"Will you turn the brightness up?" Kabrhel asked the dealer to increase the brightness of the WSOP+ Tablet on the poker table. The dealer obliged and Kabrhel used to it to see his opponent's name.

"Ethan has the best poker face I've ever seen. Okay! I said okay..." Kabrhel continued, while moving his face closer to his opponent, who was sat on his direct right.

Kabrhel went on to indicate his opponent could only have aces and that he was holding kings.

"If you don't talk, I'm gonna bust you..."

"Okay! I make a disciplined lay down," said Kabrhel, as he pushed his hand in the muck.

"By the way, you should thank me because I didn't bust you."
