Rifat Palevic Stirring Things Up

Level 2 : 150/300, 0 ante

Rifat Palevic has never been known for keeping quiet at the table and he is living up that hype by keeping the rest of the table on their toes. With a board reading {a-}{j-}{8-}{4-}{3-}, the action had been checked around between four players on all three streets. Palevic was the last to check on the river and he stood up in excitement as he turned his {k-Hearts}{q-Spades} over.

"I'm so strong, I won another one!" he rejoiced before anyone else even tabled their cards. But, indeed Palevic did win the pot as the remaining players tossed their cards to the muck. "Did you see that? I checked for value," Palevic explained. He then went on to tell the rest of the table that they were a snake and he had them grasped in his hands. Palevic has run up a sizeable stack since the beginning of the day as he closes in on on the 100,000-chip mark.
