Gordon Gets Past the Table Talk

Jeremy Geist

Level 12 : Blinds 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

There was a limp under the gun, in middle position, and from Abraham Gordon in the small blind. The big blind checked his option and they were off to a flop.

The Q?2?10? flop landed and Gordon led out for 4,000. The big blind folded and then the under the gun player verbally said "snap call" as he smiled and put in the chips. The last player folded and they were off to a 8? turn.

Gordon led again for 8,000. His opponent joked again saying "You're never gonna learn till you lose" as he put in the chips.

Gordon hit him back with "Fine, I check dark" as the 7? landed on the river. His opponent sat in the tank for a moment and checked it back.

Gordon tabled K?Q? and his opponent knuckled the table as he muck. Gordon didn't get sucked into the table talk and dragged the pot.
