Half Measures
Cotton Snuffer took down a tournament already at the 2014 Borgata Winter Poker Open - winning Event 5 for a $63,882 score to start the series off with a bang - but we have a feeling his presence would have been felt regardless of the big win.
Snuffer bears an uncanny resemblance to Walter White of the iconic television series Breaking Bad, and when he tops it off with a black porkpie hat the effect is chilling to say the least.
We watched Snuffer play a three-handed pot to the river recently, and when it was all said and done not much had changed.
The final board read by the river and all three players checked it down with the board pairing. Snuffer rolled over his in a manner that suggested he thought the pot was his, and his confidence was understandable as he held a well-concealed straight. Unfortunately for the man they call Heisenberg here at the Borgata, his opponent held the same hand with and the pot was chopped up.
A small profit for Snuffer to be sure, but if he's anything like his alter ego only full measures will leave him satisfied.
