Bleznick Goes for Glory
A-5
Joshua Faris raised from the button before action folded around to Jared Bleznick in the big blind.
"Come on, you owe me one," pushed Faris.
"Alright, should I do it? I'm going to do it," laughed Bleznick.
"What, draw five?" asked Faris as Bleznick lifted up all five of his cards.
"What, you said I owe you one!" said Bleznick. "Yeah, PokerNews, can you yell this? I'm drawing five. Just tell me you're not pat, I'll fold if you're pat."
Bleznick, true to his word, took five cards. Faris took one. Bleznick checked before looking at his new hand. Faris continued with a bet.
"I'm going to raise you once," and Bleznick put in the second bet.
Faris was a bit surprised, but after assessing the situation, went for the third bet. Bleznick called.
"I swear to god if you win this hand," exclaimed Faris.
Bleznick took two and Faris stood pat. Bleznick checked and Faris bet again. While Bleznick was thinking, Faris started to contemplate life.
"I swear to god, if you win this hand, I'm going to give you $1,000. I'll give you $1,000 out of my pocket."
"Whoa, big stakes. That makes me want to fold. Alright, I fold. Show me a six? Just show me."
Faris wasn't playing along, though, and mucked his cards without letting the world know what they were.
"I'm playing like s#@t and I've still got 90,000," Bleznick said before the hand started.
