Having a Mairs

Neil Channing has brought a small army over to Dublin as a result of his recent Grading process. Sadly for the 2008 Champion, one of those has already hit the deck in the shape of Simon Mairs.

"I had about 6,500 at the time," reported Mairs, "and this guy raised to 375. I had {A-?}{K-?} and made it 1,100 and he shoved. I don't like going broke with A-K, but I three-bet him a couple of times before so I thought he could spazzing out with {A-?}{Q-?} or something. I called, but he had kings, and I didn't hit."
