Delk Needs a Bigger Boat
Jena Delk joined us late in Pavilion, proudly telling us she was one of the last people to register today. She might have liked to miss this hand, the first one she says she played.
The limped under the gun, and the button and blinds came along to see a flop. Both blinds checked, and Delk bet 550. Only the small blind, Manny Minaya, called. The turn was the , and Minaya checked again. Delk bet 1,550, and he flatted. The on the river double-paired the board, and Minaya bet 3,220. Delk called with a pair of tens for tens full of kings. But Minaya's had rivered kings full of fours to take the pot.
"Why did I call?" Delk asked herself. "I knew you had to have that." She added, "It was nice of you stay with me the whole way though."
Delk was left with 22,100 while Manny is up to 43,000.
