Winther Reads His Oponnent

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 0 ante
Orjahn Winther
Orjahn Winther

Aside from Ian Simpson, there is another avid book reader in the field in the form of Swede Orjahn Winther. Winther was spotted on Day 1a as well, scooping pots while calmly turning the pages of his book. He did not make it through yesterday, so he rejoined the fray today to try again.

On a completed board of {9-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{9-Spades}{4-Hearts}{a-Clubs} and 6,400 chips in the middle of the table, Steven Game bet 3,500 from the hijack. Winther was sitting on the button, and calmly called, barely looking up from his book.

''You win'', declared Game. Winther won indeed, as he tabled {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs} to take an early one.
