"River Me" Picks It Up on the Flop

Felix "River Me" Gubitz opened for 6,000 under the gun; Andy Black callde to his left and Sergey Altbregin called in the big blind.

They saw a {10-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} flop which Altbregin checked. Gubitz bet 15,000. Over to Andy Black.

"How much have you got there?" Black asked. Gubitz put his hood up, and then presented his stack with a flourish. It was somewhat dirty - the stacks of various denominations and of uneven heights. A brief discussion between Black and the dealer established that the dealer was not permitted to count Gubitz' stack in this situation; after the hand was over, tablemate Brian Rast suggested they all agree to stack in 20s, and our blogging hearts leapt for joy.

But back to the hand.

Gubitz' stack was around 90,000. Black, rather disappointingly after all that, folded. So did Altbregin, and Gubitz moved up to around 130,000.

Incidentally, Gubitz piped up after the hand, explaining to Black why he had remained silent when Black asked him how many chips he had left.

Said Gubitz: "I don't want to talk to anyone in a hand. Especially you."
