Shades On - Shades Off
An interesting hand just developed on table 3 involving John Juanda and Rumit Somaiya.
Somaiya opened under the gun for 78,000 - shades on! John Juanda called in the big blind.
The dealer delivered a flop of and it was over to Juanda who tapped the felt indicating a check. Somaiya made it 110,000 and after a moments thought Juanda made the check-raise, making it 235,000 to go.
Shades off! Somaiya plonked them onto his forehead before asking "how much do you have behind?"
Juanda made the count and declared 1.3 million.
Shades On! "I call" said Somaiya.
Turn:
Juanda started to move his chip stacks about, all the time look at Somaiya for a reaction before eventually making a bet of 400,000. He got one - Somaiya took a long sip of his drink before saying "I suppose you want me to fold right?"
Somaiya then folded and Juanda added a further 375,000 to his chip stack.
