Weaver Wins an Interesting One
Raymond Weaver opened to 75,000 from under the gun, and four players called including Hugh Henderson (direct left), George Zinaty (hijack), James Kinney (cutoff), and Daniel Weinman (big blind).
"Five players to the flop," the dealer announced.
The flop fell , and Weinman checked. Quickly, Weaver tossed out four olive T25,000 chips, and both Henderson and Weinman called the 100,000-chip bet.
The turn was a repeat jack - the - and Weinman checked again. Weaver fired 150,000, Henderson raised to 350,000, and Weinman called.
"I'm all in," Weaver announcing, bumping it up to what looked like 1.4 million.
Henderson shot a look at Weaver, then turned his attention to Weinman. He finally flicked his cards into the muck, and Weinman gave a shrug before folding as well.
"I know exactly what you had," Zinaty blurted. "Pocket queens."
"That's exactly right," Weaver said in earnest.
Shocked, Henderson said that he folded jack-ten. Weinman also admitted to folding a jack.
