Leibman Chops with the Bus
Joe Leibman tossed some chips out preflop and thought he was trying to raise, but he didn't say anything or bet enough, so it was ruled a call. In the small blind, Bobby "the Bus" Ferdinand called, and big blind Ylon Schwartz said, "Run it."
Flop: - Bobby and Ylon checked, and then both called when Leibman bet.
Turn: - Two more checks from Ferdinand and Schwartz brought another bet from Leibman. Ferdinand called, and Schwartz thought more a moment before doing the same.
River: - This time, the Bus bet out. Not what Ylon was expecting. He sat up in his chair and studied the board. Then he got out of his chair for a stretch, sat back down, and pondered some more. Eventually he folded, and Leibman called.
"Ace-king," Ferdinand said. "You got a low?" Leibman asked? "Just put them on the table and we'll see," the dealer said, trying to get the show on the road already. Ferdinand tabled for top two pair and an low. Leibman held . His low was good for half the pot. "Nice king," he lamented to Ferdinand as they chopped Ylon's money.
