The Champ Makes His Presence Known

Razz:

Opponent 1: (X)(X) / {9-Clubs} {q-Hearts} FOLD
Opponent 2: (X)(X) / {5-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {q-Clubs} FOLD
Van Alstyne: (X)(X) / {k-Hearts} {7-Spades} {2-Hearts}

One player limped into a razz pot with a 9 at James Van Alstyne's before a 5 completed the bet. Van Alstyne had brought it in with a king and called. The original limper also called.

On fourth street, the player who had completed had the low board and bet. Only Van Alstyne called. Van Alstyne caught a baby to his opponents bad one on fifth. His opponent checked, prompting Van Alstyne to bet.

"I can't believe you stayed with a king," the player said. Then he mucked his hand.
