Solomon Winning the Big Ones

Hold'em:

Jarred Solomon limped the button, then called a raise from Van Marcus. The flop was {8-Diamonds} {8-Spades} {2-Hearts}. Marcus bet and was called again. Marcus slowed down on the {6-Hearts} turn, checking and then calling after Solomon bet. On the river {6-Clubs} Marcus checked again, prompting another bet from Solomon.

"Do you want me to call?" Marcus asked, searching for information. Solomon didn't respond, so Marcus finally threw in a call. Solomon turned over {8-Hearts} {4-Hearts}, dragging another big pot.

Poker boxing analogies tend to be overdone, but after that hand each player turned to his respective "corner" -- spectators standing behind the player and sweating him -- and animatedly (but quietly) described his thought processes for the hand.
