With around 40,000 in the pot by the turn of the board, Laurence Houghton bet out 21,300 from the hijack. His opponent on the button dwelled up for some time, stacked up some yellow 5,000 chips and looked as though he might raise -- and then folded instead.
"Show?" ventured the folder. "Nah," opted Houghton.
After sinking dangerously low earlier in the day, Houghton's up to a still below average but much more comfortable 120,000.
