Especially for You

Every time I venture into the battlefield, I spot Dag Palovic in the thick of battle, waving his sword around frantically in the hope that he hits his target. On this occasion, the board read {5-Hearts}{K-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{K-Hearts}, and Palovic was faced with a bet of 8,200.

"Flush?" he inquired to no response. Suddenly, he made a raise to 25,000, putting the pressure back on his opponent. After a lengthy dwell, during which time Palovic feigned mucking his cards, his opponent folded and Palovic showed {3-Spades}{3-Hearts}.

For a moment, I felt like Jason Donavon as Palovic smiled at me and said, "That was especially for you."

Palovic up to 110,000.
