Team PokerStars Pro Marcin Horecki came over to the press corner to talk to the Polish blogger.
"He's out," said Polish blogger told us.
"Oh, that's awful," said we.
But of course our Polish friend was completely lying to us - Horecki is not out, but rather up to a commanding 55,000 already. We wondered why he looked so happy.
Turns out that Horecki called an under-the-gun raise with pocket tens to find himself looking at a flop. Betting occurred, and they saw a blank sort of on the turn. More betting, and finally to the river. Most of Horecki's remaining chips went in, as you do with top full house. His opponent was holding for trips, and the Polish pro virtually doubled up.
