Table Talk: Theo Beatdown

Over at the featured TV table, there was a multi-way pot. With about 100,000 in the pot, the flop was {8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades}. Theo Jorgensen bet 60,000. Magnus Persson raised to 320,000. Dominic Kay went into the tank for three minutes, then a clock was called on him. Just as his hand was about to be killed, he folded. Annette_15 folded. Jorgensen stood up and showed his hand...the {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}...before he folded.

"I'm going to wait to see what you had on TV," said Jorgensen. "If I find out you bluffed me, I'm going to hunt you down, wherever you are, and beat you up."

"It wasn't a bluff," said Persson.

"Then show," responded Jorgensen.

It appeared that Persson was about to flip over his cards, but he slowly tossed them into the muck. Looks like Jorgensen will have to wait to see it on TV.

A Large Pot at Last, But No Showdown

Ovyind Riisem raised to 28,000 preflop, Tino Lechich called from the button, and John Tabatabai called from the big blind.

"Big pot, boys!" said Lechich, as the flop came down {7-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{3-Clubs}.

Tabatabai bet 55,000, Riisen quickly called and Lechich folded. The turn was the {6-Hearts}. Tabatabai fired out 150,000 and Riisen tanked for several minutes before deciding to fold. Tabatabai dragged the pot, worth 337,000.

Theo Jorgensen Takes A Pot

Over at the featured TV table, Dominic Kay limped from UTG. It was folded around to the blind. Theo Jorgensen called from the small blind and Magnus Persson checked the big blind. The flop was {A-Spades}{3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}. Jorgensen and Persson checked. Kay bet 23,000. Jorgensen called and Persson folded. The turn was the {6-Diamonds} and both players checked. The river was the {2-Hearts}. Jorgensen fired out 90,000. Kay tanked for two minutes before he called. Joregnsen flipped over {A-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for two pair and Kay mucked. Jorgensen took down the pot.

"Give Me a Picture"

As Magnus Persson raises under the gun for what big blinder Theo Jorgensen claims is the third time, the usual fold-fold-fold ensues.

"Give me a picture, any picture," demands Theo desperately, but before the action reaches him, Steven van Zadelhoff announces, "All in" from the small blind.

Theo, who, after his wishes had been answered, actually had {Q-Spades}{J-Spades} in the end, quickly folded, as did Magnus, shaking his head and showing the table {8-Spades}{7-Spades} in the process.

The Hoff survives.
