Old Wives Tale

Everybody has a bad beat story, and when you've been posting cashes in major tournaments since as far back as 1983, you may have more than your fair share.
Such is the case with veteran pro T.J. Cloutier, who regaled his tablemates in the early going here in Choctaw with one tale of woe.
It seems T.J. was owed a large sum of cash by a fellow player a few years back and when he went to pick up the money at The Plaza in Downtown Las Vegas, he couldn't resist sitting in on the action at the high stakes tables. Within a few minutes he flopped quad jacks, got it in against kings full of jacks, and went broke when the river brought the case king.
"I called my wife right after," he said. "I said remember that 50 I came to pick up. Well, it's not here anymore."
