Guthrie Gets Paid
We came upon an interesting situation over at Table 7 involving Bart Guthrie and a lone opponent. With a modest-sized pot having been built between them by fifth street, the board showed 
when Guthrie checked, his opponent bet 3,550, then Guthrie set all of his chips out in a single column as an all-in check-raise.
"That doesn't make sense to me," said his opponent, who then went deep into the tank as he thought out loud about Guthrie's possible holdings. Two kings, jack-queen, and eventually king-ten were among the possibilities voiced. Then Guthrie's opponent — somewhat exasperated — called the clock on himself.
That got a laugh from the table and a smile from Guthrie. Finally as the clock wound down, his opponent found a call, and Guthrie quickly tabled his hand — 
. He'd turned a flush draw and rivered a wheel.
His opponent mucked his hand, and after a quick count to make sure he was covered left for the rail.
