"Nitty Kitty" Strikes First

Christian Zetzsche

Level 1 : 100/200, 200 ante

Matt Berkey called a bet worth 1,000 on the turn and checked again the river. Kitty Kuo then fired a bet of 2,500 and both engaged in some table chat. Kuo asked if he had king-ten while Berkey mentioned some possible hands he might be up against.

"You know what you called me earlier?" Kuo inquired and Berkey replied "Nitty Kitty". Berkey then called and mucked when Kuo turned over her .
