"I Don't Want to be a Douche"
After a player had limped in the hijack, Will "Monkey" Souther raised to 1,175 from the cutoff. The button then called, the blinds folded, and the limper got out of the way. That made it heads-up action to the flop, which came down 
.
Both players checked, as they did on the 
turn, and the 
peeled off on the river. The button then tabled 
. "I didn't check the river," Souther stated. Indeed, he hadn't; nonetheless, Souther mucked his hand and said, "I don't want to be a douche [by betting."
The man known as "Monkey" is down to 21,500.
