No-Fear Maria

[user4144]

With the blinds braced to rise to 50 and 100, petite but ever-so-lethal Maria Demetriou is showing no fear in the face of WPT and EPT victor Roland de Wolfe.

Raising it up pre-flop with {K-Hearts}

, the East Midlander was called by Mr. de Wolfe in the blind. A {K-Diamonds}

flop later, and all the chips flew in, Roland betting, Maria raising, Roland pushing all-in and Maria making the call.

Although ahead with her top pair, Maria was rather unnerved to see the menacing sight of an {A-Clubs}

, Roland possessing more than his fair share of outs.

However, with blanks hitting the turn and river, Roland was unable to find that cow's behind with his banjo and was forced to request his second chance and lose that magic yellow chip.

"You didn't believe me?" inquired Roland.

"You could have any two cards," replied Maria.

Roland's reputation as a wild player clearly precedes him. Meanwhile, Maria jumps up to 8.5K.
