Big Preflop Laydown May Leave Touil With Bad Taste Over Dinner
A weird one ran down the hand-for-hand clock as preflop raiser Jimmy Ostensson set the wheels in motion with a raise to 25k. Per Linde called, and then small blind Fabrice Touil decided to make it 150k. Ostensson lost all interest but Linde mused, "150? Wow. Can I get a count on his remaining chips?" This turned out to be 470k, and Linde's decision turned out to be All In.
Back to Touil who had to hear everyone else going off on dinner break as he looked unhappily at his stack, counted it down, shook his head, had the clock called on him ("I'm hungry," Linde said as his reason) and finally passed.
He showed Queens, and the table's eyes widened as Linde flipped Jacks!
