Recent Action

The last handful of hands have all been taken down preflop with the exception of the following two hands.

On the first hand, Michael "Michnak" Michnik limped from the small blind and John Nixon checked in the big blind. The flop came down {A-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} {A-Clubs} and Michnik checked. Nixon fired 35,000 and Michnik called.

The turn brought the {5-Hearts} and Michnik quickly checked. Nixon sat in the tank, or so it seemed. Nixon didn't know Michnik had checked and sat completely motionless for about five minutes. Finally, he asked who the action was on and was informed it was his turn to act. He then decided to bet 45,000. Michnik folded.

Two hands later, Frank Vizza limped from the small blind and Samuel Chartier checked his option in the big blind. The flop came down {9-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {5-Clubs} and Vizza fired 80,000. Chartier raised to 180,000 and then Vizza quickly reraised to 400,000. A short pause ensued from Chartier and then he folded.
