"Show One ?"

Maxime Taldir

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Lucas Monnier opened from the hijack, and Mario Niciforo in the big blind was the only one to call his 900 bet.

The flop 9?7?10? appeared on the table, and Monnier bet another 600. However, Niciforo raised to 3,100. The French player called to see the 5? on the turn.

Niciforo continued betting, this time 5,400. Once again, Monnier called. On the river Q?, when Niciforo added 13,000 more to the pot, but Monnier took a minute to observe his opponent. Even though he looked unhappy about his decision, he folded.

"Show one?" he asked a second later. Niciforo didn't answer but moved his arms as if to say: "What? Why?". The dealer collected his cards, and everybody at the table laughed at his reaction.
