Potter Survives

Georgios Kapalas and Jason Potter (big blind) entered into a preflop raising war which left Potter with just 8,000 behind.

"I wager 8,000 in the dark," declared Potter braveley. "I am crazy."

Kapalas called in the dark. "Oh my God," responded Potter. "A call in the dark?!"

As the {A-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} flop was dealt, the players revealed their cards, {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} versus {A-Spades}{J-Spades}.

"I got the freeroll!" exclaimed Potter like an excitable child on Christmas Day.

"I don't like the freeroll," replied his foe stoically.

The {7-Diamonds} turn elicited oohs from the crowd, but it was in vain as the river came a harmless {2-Spades} to chop it up.
