Poker Lesson

He may be an ultimate fighter of sorts ("When's your next fight?" asked Daniel Negreanu."), but bracelet winner Jani Vilmunen should know better than to tangle with not one, but two femme fatales of the poker felt, especially when one was the highest placed female player at the 2009 WSOP Main Event.

On this occasion, Vilmunen raised it up to 5,000 from early position and Kim Wooka made the call. Further down, however, Leo Margets was lying in wait, and duly made it 17,000. Both opponents had tentative stacks of around 35-40,000 and would be near committed if they called, but whether Margets was making a clever move with rags, or actually had the goods, I guess we'll never know.
