Having a Good Ol' Time With Vos

Mark Vos has really been stirring things up at his table. Him and his buddies have switched over to white wine now and are enjoying with much laughter.

On a recent hand, Vos announced "I raise!" He then proclaimed the amount, "One... thousand... dollars!" as he raised to 1,000. Action folded around to the player in the big blind, who checked his cards a few times as he thought about his decision.

Vos told the player he could see one card, but the dealer refused to let Vos show. Vos then began waving one card around in the air saying "I promise you I won't show any more cards." The {9-Hearts} flashed from Vos' hand and after a minute or two more, the big blind called.

The flop came down {7-Spades} {3-Spades} {3-Hearts} and the big blind checked to Vos. Vos bet 600 as he toppled over his stack of chips next to his cards. The big blind called.

The turn was the {J-Diamonds}. "Do you have a jack?" asked Vos as the big blind checked over to him again. Vos said, "I'm all in!" and put the pressure on his opponent. Vos was laughing with friends and then decided he needed some more wine. Mark tipped back his glass and finished off what was left of it. It seemed as if Vos put the the other player on tilt as he called with {A-Hearts} {10-Diamonds}. Vos showed {9-Hearts} {9-Diamonds}.

The river was the {8-Clubs} and the big blind was sent to the rail. He didn't seem too happy about it as Vos laughed some more while gathering up the chips from the pot. Vos is now back up to 12,000 chips.
