"If I had two queens I would've called you an hour ago"
George Caragiorgas opened for 60,000 from under the gun. It folded all the way around to Gaetano Buda in the bug blind who three-bet to 280,000. Caragiorgas pushed back and announced a four-bet to 750,000.
Buda went into the tank as it was for most of his stack. He shuffled his chips and thought for multiple minutes. Finally he broke his silence and said. "C'mon tell me what you think I have. Make this easier for me"
"Two queens" asked Caragiorgas.
"If I had two queens I would've called you an hour ago" replied Buda quickly. "You show, I show?" to which Caragiorgas said that seemed fair.
Buda showed the Q♦Q♣ as he folded. Caragiorgas showed him the K♠K♦ to confirm that Buda had made the right lay down as the tabled reacted and Caragiorgas wryly acknowledged Buda's previous lie about the queens.
