Elezra Getting Chatty

When we arrived at Eli Elzra's table there was a flop showing {k-Spades} {a-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} and Elzra was involved in a hand with three opponents. Two of the players checked to Elezra and he bet 300. All three of his opponents made the call and Elzra said, "Ace-King on the flop and everyone of you calls me?"

As Elzra was finishing his sentence, the dealer flipped over a {7-Hearts} . The play was again checked to Elezra.

"I dont know if this is right, but.." said Elzra as he slid his cards into the muck, not taking his option to check.

"I needed to do that before i got into trouble," quipped Elezra as he casually leaned back in his chair.

As we left the table, a player to his Elzra's left yelled out to the room, "One dollar for a smoke!" A player on a different table obliged and happily took the dollar.

"Now i'll pay you $20 to light it up and smoke it here at the table," said Elezra to the man who now sits with a smoke in front of him.
