Two Pair for Marchese Beats Two Pair for Corkins

Level 2 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Tom Marchese
Tom Marchese

Tom Marchese fired 38,500 with the final board reading {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}{J-Spades}{5-Clubs}{2-Hearts}., Hoyt Corkins was his opponent in the hand and was tanking. While Marchese sat still with his Bose noise-cancelling headphones on, Corkins said, "I've been waiting to get you back for Foxwoods. Marchese knocked Corkins out of a Foxwoods event recently and that's what Corkins was referring to. "I guess you can't hear me," finished Corkins.

Corkins finally made the call and Marchese tabled the {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} for top two pair. Corkins held the {K-Spades}{J-Diamonds} for a worse two pair. Marchese scooped the pot and made mention that he could inceed hear Corkins, but didn't want to say anything. "I don't listen to music that loud," he said.
