Lars Goes Fars

Sole remaining Hougaard Lars is up to 10,000 after calling a 575 bet from an opponent on the turn of a {Q-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {A-Clubs} board, and then checking behind on the {K-Hearts} river. "Er, I've got a ten," ventured his opponent. "That's not good," Hougaard told him, flipping {A-Hearts} {9-Hearts}. "No, I didn't think it was," replied the wistful opponent.
