McMillen Shoulda Looked
A player raised to 2,000 from early position, and Ron McMillen, who is in quite the jovial mood, looked at this cards in the big blind.
"They're suited, y'know," McMillen told his opponent as he called. "If they weren't I fold this!"
"I check!" McMillen said, looking away from the flop before it could fall. His opponent checked back.
"I check!" McMillen continued on the turn, still looking towards his opponent and not at the board. His opponent checked again.
The fell on the river, and McMillen checked aloud for a third straight street, still never looking at the board. His opponent checked a third time.
"Ace-high?" McMillen asked his opponent, who indeed held for ace-high. McMillen peeled the up first, then the second for king-high.
"Look at that! Had I saw my hand, I woulda bet!" McMillen said when he saw his flush draw on the flop. McMillen's opponent took the small pot, while McMillen himself looked none the worse for wear after the tiny loss.
