And the Bag's in the River

During a recent pass around the table we caught up with Cotton Snuffer (the Iverson is just for his driver's license) - and the man known as Heisenberg filled us in with a postmortem on a recent loss.

According to Snuffer, he held and flopped an up-and-down draw on the . The flop contained two clubs as well, and when Maurice Hawkins bet into Snuffer, he flatted to see fourth street complete his hand with the . With the nuts and a check to him, Snuffer made it 6,200 to go looking for a little value, and Hawkins came along to see the drop on the river.

Now it was Hawkins' turn to bet, and he fired 6,500 into the man sitting to his left. Snuffer made the call and discovered that the bag was in the river, as Hawkins rolled over for a flush.

Hawkins had about 190,000 after that hand, but he seems to hit a speed bump or two since then, with just over 100,000 to play with in the last level of the evening.
