Blumstein Puts Lamb to the Test
As the camera crew surrounded the table, Ben Lamb and Scott Blumstein were involved in a massive pot. There looked to be about 2,000,000 already in the middle, and the board was on the turn, reading .
Both players checked and saw the complete the board and put a full house on board, as well. Blumstein took his time and cut out a bet of 840,000. This sent Lamb into the tank for a few minutes, contemplating the huge decision. He eventually folded, and then the table started a conversation about what the two players had as the camera crew was shown their cards.
Lamb, oblivious that this was a thing, asked when his cards or his opponents would be shown. Lamb was told by the crew that the hands would be processed post-production, sparking an idea from Lamb.
"Wait, who around here knows so I can bribe them?" Lamb asked jokingly. "$500!"
Blumstein looked at Lamb and said, "I'll tell you for $600."
