The Cowboy Rides Away

Florian Langmann
Florian Langmann
There were about 31,000 chips already piled in the middle of the table when the dealer put a turn card out on the board of {2-Hearts} {10-Spades} {9-Hearts} {3-Spades}. Action was on Hoyt Corkins, and he moved all in for 30,000. Langmann went deep into the tank, pump-faking a call several times. Finally, a player at the table called the clock, and the floor man came scurrying over. After only a few seconds of his time though, Langmann made the call to put Corkins at risk.

Corkins was just fine with that; Langmann's {10-Hearts} {J-Clubs} was in bad shape against the Cowboy's {A-Diamonds} {A-Clubs}. But Corkins was not going to like the river card. The {10-Clubs} peeled off the deck, improving Langmann to the winning trip tens and sending Corkins out of the ring.
