Who Wants €100?

There hasn't been much three-betting since we went nine-handed, as everyone is hunkering down to try and survive this middle day. Ah, but we found ourselves a three-bet just moments ago.

Sorel Mizzi opened to 38,000 from middle position, and Luke Schwartz was already eying up his chips. When it came to FullFlush, he stuck in a three-bet to 93,000 total.

"How much you playing?" Mizzi asked.

"Started the hand with about three eighty," came the reply.

With that, Mizzi announced a covering all-in reraise. Schwartz sat still.

"Gotta be pretty happy I didn't snap," he eventually said. After another moment or two of debate, he continued, "I'll give you €100 to show me worse than ace-jack or pocket tens when I fold." And he promptly folded.

"A hundred Euros?" Mizzi asked, double-checking his cards. He seemed to be considering, but finally admitted, "Nah, I have better than tens," and slid his cards into the muck.

Schwartz seemed a bit disappointed, so Allen Bari offered to help. "Will you give me €100 if I just flip his cards up?" Bari asked.

Chuckles all around as Mizzi adds about 100,000 chips to his stack.
