We picked up the action on a turn in a heads-up pot between Michael Pedley (small blind) and the player on the button. Pedley was leading the betting with 4,300, and his opponent flicked in an oversized chip to call and see the river. It was the , and Pedley fired right out with another 7,700.
That bet sent his opponent deep into the tank, and Pedley began chatting with him. "I think you were drawing," he said at one point. "Is ace-queen good enough? I think it is." When his opponent reached for chips, though, Pedley quieted right down.
After maybe 90 seconds or so, Mr. Opponent finally dropped the call into the pot, and Pedley tabled for the nuts. The opponent later said he had been the one with ace-queen, but he was unable to get away from it, and Pedley has chipped his way up close to the century mark with that pot.
