The board read when the action was on Roger Hairabedian. He put out three bets right in front of his stack, and his opponent Igor Kurganov had to pick.
"You choose, I bet," Hairabedian said as he put out 18,000, 30,000 and 50,000-chip bets.
Kurganov decided on 30,000 and immediately Hairabedian pushed that bet forward.
"Now I've confused myself," Kurganov said as he smiled, and the other players at the table cracked a smile.
"The next time pick this one," Hairabedian said as he pointed to the 50,000-chip bet. "If I give you a gift I want to do a big gift," the French WSOPE bracelet winner said. "When I speak a lot I'm strong," Hairabedian added as Kurganov remained confused.
Eventually the German folded, and Hairabedian picked up the pot.
