The Dutchman Flies Outta Here
Someone at the table seemed particularly enthused to be sitting with the Flying Dutchman. "Can we see some ID, sir?" he asked, as Luske laughed and pulled his passport from his suit jacket.
However, that was as much excitement as the room will get out of Luske today. Just after he sat down, possibly in his very first hand, he got in trouble.
Luske was sitting in the small blind, and the player in the cutoff opened the action to 150. Luske and the big blind both called, and the three men saw a flop of K-Q-T.
When the action came around, the cutoff bet 500, and Luske put his remaining chips into the pot, tabling J-9 for the straight after he was called. Not to be outdone by the Dutchman, the cutoff flipped over A-J, the nut straight, and sent Luske away to finish his coffee elsewhere.
