Basic Cable

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

A player open-shoved for his last 82,000 from under the gun, and next to act Joe Cable three-bet to 175,000 for the isolation move.

The rest of the table folded around dutifully, leaving Cable to roll over his {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} looking to flip a coin. Sure enough, his opponent tabled the {q-Spades}{9-Spades} for suited overcards, and when the flop came down {q-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} it appeared he had called the right side of the coin.

"Seven of diamonds..." called another player at the table, looking to sweat the action vicariously.

Turn: {3-Diamonds}

"My bad, my bad..." offered the interlocutor. "I'm sorry..."

Knowing he had summoned the deck's demons, the player who called for a sweat cringed as the river card fell {4-Diamonds} to complete Cable's runner-runner flush. For his part, the player who just went bust could only hold his hands to his head in shock, before heading to the payout desk to collect his cash.

"I was trying to give you action," offered Cable, trying to console the man whose dream he had just torn asunder. "Sorry man."
