Ristola Gets Mysteriously Jiggy

Next hand, Markus Ristola raised again, and Daniel Negreanu called again. Then Barry Shulman called from the big blind too, shattering the illusion that time had merely got stuck on a loop, and we saw a flop.

All three players checked the {9-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} {2-Hearts} flop, and TD Jack Effel's microphone suddenly got very loud. "That was loud," he said into it, and he reverberated around the casino at high volume.

As Mr. Effel continued to deafen everyone saying, "Testing," repeatedly into his super-mega-high-volume mic, the players saw a {2-Diamonds} turn and Ristola announced all in. Both players folded and Ristola took the pot, putting him up to 1,455,000.
