Leibman Chops with the Bus

[user140525]

Joe Leibman tossed some chips out preflop and thought he was trying to raise, but he didn't say anything or bet enough, so it was ruled a call. In the small blind, Bobby "the Bus" Ferdinand called, and big blind Ylon Schwartz said, "Run it."

Flop: {a-Clubs} {7-Hearts} {4-Clubs} - Bobby and Ylon checked, and then both called when Leibman bet.

Turn: {10-Hearts} - Two more checks from Ferdinand and Schwartz brought another bet from Leibman. Ferdinand called, and Schwartz thought more a moment before doing the same.

River: {k-Spades} - This time, the Bus bet out. Not what Ylon was expecting. He sat up in his chair and studied the board. Then he got out of his chair for a stretch, sat back down, and pondered some more. Eventually he folded, and Leibman called.

"Ace-king," Ferdinand said. "You got a low?" Leibman asked? "Just put them on the table and we'll see," the dealer said, trying to get the show on the road already. Ferdinand tabled {a-Spades} {k-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} for top two pair and an {8-} {7-} {5-} {4-} {A-} low. Leibman held {a-Hearts} {q-Clubs} {6-Hearts} {2-Spades} . His {7-} {6-} {4-} {2-} {A-} low was good for half the pot. "Nice king," he lamented to Ferdinand as they chopped Ylon's money.
