'What Are You Doing, Cuz?'
Jamie Gold raised to 100,000 under the gun, and Steven Buckner moved all in for 430,000, one seat to his left. The action returned to Gold, who called.
Steven Buckner: K♣J♣
Jamie Gold: A♠Q♠
When the dealer spread the 3♣5♣6♠ flop, there was a little bit of chat between the two players, who have known each other for more than two decades.
"Oh, you've gave him the club draw," Gold said.
"Let me get there one time," Buckner responded.
The 2♥ turn had no effect, and neither did the 5♠ river, seeing Gold eliminate Buckner.
"What are you doing, cuz? You know when I raise first, I never have worse than that", Gold asked rhetorically, referring to the hand Buckner chose to move all in with.
"We've known each other for twenty years. I would never berate another player, but we've been playing against each other for twenty years", Gold assured the table as Buckner took his leave.
