"Is a Made Ten Ahead at This Point?"
Tony Cousineau started playing poker in 2000, and since then he has amassed 58 WSOP cashes for $708,106, though a gold bracelet has escaped him.
Thomas Muhlocker doesn't have a WSOP cash to his name, but he tore it up on Season 10 of the European Poker Tour and finished second on that tour's Player of the Year Race. Muhlocker has made the trip to Vegas and recently squared off against Cousineau in a friendly hand of razz.

Cousineau actually took the lead and led out for 100, Muhlocker called, and then the lead and betting switched back on fifth.
Sixth saw the lead reverse again, and Cousineau bet 200, which Muhlocker called.
"Is a made ten ahead at this point?" Cousineau asked before checking and indicating that he would call a bet because he "can't be bluffed."
Muhlocker smiled and then checked behind.

"I had nines in the hole and caught the four," Cousineau said in reference to making a ten-nine low. It was good as his Austrian opponent folded.
