Toothpick Swinging

Toothpick: still chewin'
Toothpick: still chewin'
On a flop that read {4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}, an opponent led out for 600 into Antonis 'Toothpick Tony' Kambouroglou who made the call.

Kambouroglou then called the opponent's bet of 900 on the turn of the {j-Diamonds} and the bet of 1,300 when the dealer produced the {10-Diamonds} on the river.

The dealer motioned to the player to turn up his cards, but the player appeared confused, not aware of the "first aggressor" rule. Eventually, he rolled up {a-?}{k-?} but was no good against Kambouroglou's {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}.

Kambouroglou moved up 29,000 after that hand, but then shrunk to 11,000 in chips after Emad Tatouh doubled up to 25,000 against when his pocket kings hit a set on a {8-?}{4-?}{k-?}{q-?}{2-?} board against 'The Toothpick' who held pocket aces.
