Correia Can't Get a Read on Margets, Lays Down the Same Hand

David Salituro

Level 34 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Leo Margets raised to 1,000,000 in the hijack with A♦Q♦ and Ruben Correia three-bet to 2,600,000 on the button. Margets then moved all in for 15,700,000.

Correia waited for the dealer to confirm the amount and then went deep into the tank. "It's difficult with all these lights. No, you're used to it. It's a big spot. You're not stacking off with jacks. Tens, maybe. Ace-queen? Nines?" Correia said, trying to interrogate Margets who remained silent staring straight ahead.

"I hate to play poker with girls. I can't read them. Not in poker or in life," Correia added before tossing A♠Q♣ into the muck.

"You're alive," he told Margets.

"It's good to be alive," Margets replied.
