Phil Laak

Phil Laak is known for some antics at the poker table and for very being very talkative. We're all still waiting for the day when Laak, Greg Raymer, Scotty Nguyen and David Saab draw the same table. Everyone else's ears will probably fall off.

In any event, Laak was at it again, raising to 1,750 after Niki Jedlicka opened for 525. Jedlicka moved all in for 9,300 and Laak snap-called.

Laak: {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{K-Clubs}

Jedlicka:

{A-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

"It's seventy percent," noted Laak. The dealer put out a flop of {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{5-Hearts}

{4-Clubs}

.

"Come on. I'm ninety-four percent," Laak said. His edge held after the {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

turn and

{2-Clubs}

river.

"Yes!" said Laak. "My first reraise in four-and-a-half weeks." He's up to 25,500. Jedlicka is on the rail.
