Talbot Keeping Things Lively At His Table
"Cocktails to table nine," Parker Talbot yelled out as he just moved tables, taking his new seat to the left of Dietrich Fast.
"I just lost 50K on my first hand," Talbot said as he ordered two glasses of wine.
"Because of the wine," Aliaksandr Shylko, standing by the table after busting earlier, asked.
"No, because I'm stupid. That's how you build chips. Everyone here is afraid to bust. Except for this table," Talbot replied as he looked around at the big stacks at his table that include not only Fast but also Evgenii Sboev, Casimir Seire, and Maksim Haitsiukevich.
Klemens Roiter then raised to 2,500 under the gun and Talbot three-bet to 8,000 in the cutoff. Roiter called and they went heads-up to the 10?5?4? flop.
Talbot continued for 11,500 and Roiter called. Both players then checked the 8? turn.
The river came the A? and Talbot fired out 22,000, enough to win the pot as Roiter mucked.
"Watch and learn," Fast told Seire after the hand.
"I am learning," Seire replied.
Talbot then had his two wine glasses delivered and offered one to Seire, who turned it down as Talbot kept both for himself.
