Banana Peels

[user253757]

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

The tournament circuit is a diverse world filled with characters, and we just met one more in Harry Banana. Mr. Banana's mother gifted him with the name Harrison Kaczka (come to think of it, we'd probably just go by Harry Banana too), but like most young players who came up in the era of online poker, the anonymity granted by screen names and handles is preferred over ownership of an actual identity.

In any event, a man calling himself Harry Banana played to the river against Jeff Madsen, with the final board reading .

Madsen was in the big blind and he led out for 5,200, only to see Mr. Banana calmly raise to 12,700. Madsen didn't appear to be very happy at the sight of this bet, but he called off anyway, grimacing when he saw Harry Banana's hit the felt. After flopping top-top with his suited ace, the banana man peeled one off to make a full house on fourth street, before taking Madsen on a guided tour of Valuetown on the river.
