Gieles Versus O'Dwyer

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante

When we got to the table, the turn was already out with the board reading {5-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{A-Hearts} {8-Clubs}. The three-handed action checked through.

The {9-Spades} completed the board and the big blind checked. Gieles, in middle position, bet 3,000 and Steve O'Dwyer in the hijack raised to 8,000. The big blind got out of the way and Gieles went into the tank. Several minutes past with Gieles contemplating calling or folding.

Farid Chati, O'Dwyer's neighbor, started to mess around a bit, playing with O'Dwyer's signature cap. Gieles eventually folded.

O'Dwyer gave Gieles the option to pick and see one pf his cards. Gieles picked the left one and revealed it to be the {6-Diamonds}.

"I folded a crazy hand," Gieles said, before continuing with a smile in Dutch saying to his neighbor Moreira de Melo that that would be the last time he would fold such a hand.
