Hands in the Cookie Jar

Rob Garfield just experienced one of those awkward moments when he's forced to reveal filth. Having made a standard raise preflop, the small blind moved all in for shrapnel, and Garfield made the obligatory call.

As the short stack revealed {9-Hearts}{7-Clubs}, Garfield meekly lay his {4-Spades}{3-Diamonds} onto the felt. But any two cards can win in this game (well, except jokers or the bridge rules), and following an {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{10-Clubs} board, Garfield was adding a few extra chips to his stack and shaking the hand of his unfortunate victim.

He's jumped up slightly to 8,500, but his reputation is in tatters.
