Dark Horse Debbie

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Debbie Motycka has been bubbling under the top stacks for most of yesterday and today but it looks like she has recently taken the chip lead.

Very little is known about Motycka and she has no recorded cashes but she is more than holding her own in this tournament, playing a lot of pots and seemingly picking off bluffs and making up with strong hands and getting paid. Her unorthodox style certainly seems to be bamboozling some of the other players.

Mike McDonald though managed ti get the better of Motycka in a recent hand as she was still stacking chips from a previous hand. McDonald opened to 4,000 and Motycka made the call as did the big blind. The flop was {8-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{10-Spades} and when McDonald continued for 6,000 Motycka made the call to get it heads up. The turn card {q-Spades} brought the third spade out and McDonald bet 15,000.

Motycka picked up her cards to better study them and with a shake of the head she passed them to the dealer to fold.
