Vodka Please!
Marlek Tatar of Slovakia is helping the day pass along by drinking a few glasses of vodka. Roberto Romanello hast told Tatar that he will drink one glass to every three Tatar consumes. So far Tatar has declined Romanello's offer.
Anyway, back to the hand. Tatar opened to 17,000 in the hijack and Jorma Nuutinen called on the button. Both blinds folded and the dealer fanned out the flop.
"Vodka please!" cried Tatar as the dealer got to work.
Tatar checked, Nuutinen bet 20,000 and Tatar called. That was the last of the betting because the duo checked the arrival of the turn and river, Tatar's beating Nuutinen's .
"Don't your chips work? You had a pair of aces!" quipped Romanello.
"What would I get with his [Nuutinen] hand?" replied Tatar.
"You didn't know he had king-jack," said Romanello.
"When I drink I see everything!" claimed Tatar, before stacking his chips and draining the rest of his drink from his glass.
