Mizzi Drops, and then Drops and Gives Fifteen

Sorel Mizzi led out for 5,600 on a flop of {Q-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {8-Diamonds}. His opponent raised to 15,000. Mizzi called after a few moments' thought. Both players checked the {J-Diamonds} turn and the {4-Clubs} river.

"Queen," said Mizzi. It wasn't enough; his opponent showed {Q-Spades} {j-Clubs} for two pair, queens and jacks. It was at that point that Nenad Medic and Mizzi both hit the floor to pound out fifteen push-ups, as per the terms of their standing side bet with Layne Flack.

"Give him one second, he's gotta do some push-ups," Flack told a massage therapist waiting to get to work on Mizzi.

"Always salt in the wound," Mizzi rued. He got down on the floor and began his punishment.

"Get that butt down!" barked Flack.
