King Jeremy the Wicked

Everybody wants to take a shot at a champion. Most of those people will try to out-draw a champion; some will try to out-bluff a champion. At Chris Moneymaker's table, Moneymaker led out for 1,100 on a flop of {4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{7-Clubs}. He was raised by an opponent to 3,200.

"If I fold will you show?" Moneymaker asked. His opponent made no response, so Moneymaker tried a different tack. "What's your name?"

"Jeremy."

"Jeremy, if I fold will you show?"

Jeremy agreed to show if Moneymaker folded. Moneymaker then folded {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs} and was shown a stone bluff, {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}.
