Kahlmeyer KO'd
Level 5
: 150/300, 25 ante
There was over 25,000 in the pot when we arrived - meaning that around half of big blind Tim Kahlmeyer's stack had already found its way into the middle - and Alfred Nader in the small blind was betting out around 50,000 to very definitely cover him. Kahlmeyer had been tanking up for some time already when we got there. "If you show a bluff I will hate myself for the rest of my life," was his eventual bold statement.
Still Kahlmeyer tanked, and eventually the clock was called. In due time Kahlmeyer did in fact call all in - and was not condemned to a lifetime of bitter self-loathing, as Nader turned over for two pair. Kahlmeyer mucked and left, while Nader upped his stack to almost 90,000.
