Folding Because of the Sandwich
On the turn 8?7?J?K?, four-time bracelet winner Jeff Madsen bet 4,200 from early position and got a call from Cassandra Yong in middle position.
The river came the Q?, bringing in a possible flush and a couple more straight options. Madsen thought about it and checked. Yong was in the middle of her lunch, consisting of a sandwich and some potato chips, and, after a moment, bet 15,000.
Madsen was trying but had trouble getting a look at his opponent, as they were sitting in seats 1 and 9 with the dealer blocking the view.
Seeing him look over, Yong cheerfully asked: ��Oh, you want to talk to me?�� and seemed very open to having a lunchtime conversation. Madsen at first confirmed but then quickly shook his head and pushed his cards towards the dealer.
��The sandwich got me to fold,�� he said, while Yong smilingly collected his chips.
