Maridu Does Something Gross

Maridu Mayrinck is up to 20,000.

"I just tripled up in the most grotesque way." Oh yes? "No, I can't tell you, it's too gross."

It wasn't actually all that disgusting, a mere desperate shove from the small blind to a early position raise. Maridu's {Q-?} {J-?} offsuit was, admittedly, in pretty terrible shape against her opponent's {K-?} {Q-?} (I believe it may have actually been {K-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} and two hearts on the flop, but it also may not have been), but a friendly jack on the turn kept her in the game.

"It was horrible, I'm not proud of it," she announced. Then to the gent who'd had the {K-?} {Q-?}: "Sorry."
