Crocodile Rock
We happened to stumble upon a very entertaining hand. With about 8,000 in the pot and a flop of , "Minneapolis" Jim Meehan bet 2,800 and Justin "Boosted J" Smith called behind. The dealer burned and turned the and Meehan bet 13,800, leaving himself 26,900 behind.
"If you beat me this hand, sonny boy, I'll give you my crocodile hat," Meehan offered Smith, although it didn't appear he knew he was up against an established pro. After about 90 seconds Smith moved all in for a total of 41,000.
Meehan was not thrilled and tanked. He stood up from his seat, sat back down, and stood up again. "I find that very hard to believe young man," he said. There was some more silence as he pulled out a cigarette and inserted it into his mouth. Meehan was about to launch into a story when the player in Seat 6 called a clock. Meehan wanted to know who the culprit was as the floor began the countdown. With eight seconds left, Meehan mucked. He did not give Smith, who is up to 60,000, the coveted crocodile hat.
