Riverman Only Needs a Flop

Laurence "Riverman1" Houghton is up to 34,000, not a bad start for the online wizard.

Most recently he saw a {3-Hearts} {2-Spades} {7-Clubs} flop and his opponent bet out 1,500. Houghton made it 4,800 and his opponent swiftly passed. Houghton showed him {A-Hearts} {K-Hearts}.

While this whole hand was going on, a tablemate appeared to be involved in a long and impassioned lecture directed at Houghton, the subject of which seemed to be that Britain was only ever a great country because of its history of colonizing and plundering other nations. Houghton nodded politely.
