Fernandez Gets Order, Loses Chips
Level 8
: 400/800, 100 ante
It folded around to Leo Fernandez who opened to 2,000 from middle position, and his opponent sitting to his left reraised to 5,700. It folded back to Fernandez who made the call.
The flop came . So, too, arrived the cocktail waiter, who happened to be delivering coffees to both Fernandez and his opponent. Both ignored him for about a half-minute, concentrating on the hand. Then finally they paused in the proceedings long enough to settle up and receive their orders. With cups in hand, they continued what they had begun.
Fernandez checked, and his opponent quickly bet 5,600. Fernandez sat quietly for a while, then let his hand go. The Argentinian took a sip and looked back at his stack -- now 46,000.
