Another WSOP Story

An except from Poker News.com (http://www.pokernews.com/news/2006/7/wsop-updates-soccer-misreads-laydown.htm)

Now for what I consider the strangest but perhaps the best lay down I have seen so far this Series. This happened in the very first public tournament, the $1,500 No Limit Hold'em event (#2). I was standing behind a player who had horribly flashed his pocket Kings. I mean we make every attempt never to look at player's hole cards because standing behind them we might not have as good a poker face as they do and giving a read to another player at the table is a mortal media sin. But this guy had just picked up his cards and stared at the cowboys.

The board came AK9 and he bet and got a caller. Turn is a 6, bet and a call. The river brings a deuce the board is AK962 rainbow, the trip Kings makes a final bet but not all-in, in fact, he has over 5K left and the pot is now around 8K with his river bet. After a bit of a thought the other player moves all-in. Now the trip Kings looks down at the all-in raiser, who is wearing a t-shirt that says: "Cable Guy".

The trip Kings says: "Are you by any chance Cable22 online?"

Cable Guy is a bit shocked but says: "Why yes I am, have we played before?"

"Yes, we have and I have seen that move before too." With that the guy mucks his trip Kings face up.

Several "What the ______!" emerge around the table but then Mr. Cable Guy shows his pocket Aces.

Who says you can't make reads online?
