Doft Stack Gets Bigger
Mickey Doft: /
Doft's opponent: /
Mickey Doft completed and one other player called; Doft bet out on fourth street and his opponent called that too.
Both players checked fifth street before Doft's opponent, now first to act, bet out on sixth street. Doft called, and then called a further bet on seventh street, not looking terribly confident.
Doft turned over his down cards first in a matter-of-fact sort of way, revealing an 8-6-5-2-A low - and his expression slowly turned into one of delight as his opponent turned over a just-behind 8-7-6-5-2 low.
Doft moved up to 11,000.
