Wein-er, Wein-er!
With the action folded around to him in late position, Jonathan Wein moved his last 65,600 chips across the betting line. The table passed around to Yervand Boyadjian, and he squeezed his cards tight. The first one was apparently an ace as he pleaded, "Come on, come on, come on," as he slipped his fingers off the second card. It was good enough; "I call!" Boyadjian announced emphatically.
Showdown
Wein:
Boyadjian:
The flop was in Wein's neighborhood, coming to give him the pair and put him two cards from a double up. The turn was even better news, taking away one more out from his opponent. The river was safe and sound, and Boyadjian spun away from the table, dropping a few choice words as he pouted for a minute.
Wein's timely flop earns him the double up and a chip count of about 135,000 again.
