Turner Prize

A Turner for the worse
A Turner for the worse
Forks at the ready, because Jon Turner is done and ready to eat. Attacking from the button, he was reraised by John Tabatabai in the big blind before pushing with {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}. As John made the insta-call, the reaction wasn't promising, Turner simply commenting, "Oh, that's not good."

There was a hand on the other table, so we had to wait, but as someone called out, "All-in and a call," it had to be changed to "All-in and a potential call," as Turner still had a brown 100 chip back and could effectively fold...which he may have been slightly tempted to do.

Of course, the brown chip went it, and it was on their backs time, Turner in water so hot that it could have taken a trip to the sun and back. "I owe you one," threatened Turner as he was met by Tabatabai's {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}.

Although the {4-Hearts}{6-Spades}{Q-Spades} flop shone a little ray of light, it was soon overshadowed by the {6-Clubs} turn and {9-Clubs} river, Tabatabai adding yet more chips to his ever-increasing stack and eliminating a dangerous player in the process.

Eerily, Ian Frazer had folded A-J in latish position, saying, "I just don't fancy raising your blind, you're a lucky player," when it was his go. Mystic Ian strikes. Dodododo dodododo dodododo...
