Rollercoaster for Beppe

Speaking of Michael 'Don't Call Me Beppe' Greco, the British thespian-cum-poker professional has been on somewhat of a rollercoaster of late, dipping down as low as 2,000, before eventually settling on 11,000.

"I had to fold aces one hand," he claimed, as I inquired of his poor start. "I raised it up to 800, received one caller and bet out 2,300 on a K-T-x flop. He made it 6,000, and I decided to let it go, only for him to show K-T."

"I got it back later though," he continued. "I managed to get up to 4,000, before flopping a flush with T-8 suited on a queen high flop. My opponent made the call with Q-J and was basically drawing dead."
