Martin Johnson Accidentally Gets Paid Off by Annette_15

Martin Johnson

Annette, predictably, is partial to a preflop raise or two. If she isn't at it, immediate left hand side neighbour Aleksander Vathne tends to take up the slack. It's not like there are terribly easy blinds to steal, with Chan, Tran et al. on the table too, but every pot tends to start aggressively.

Just now, big blind Martin Johnson called Annette's preflop raise to 6,800, seeing the {K-Hearts}{K-Spades}{6-Diamonds} . Johnson sat staring, arms crossed, at the flop for a minute, and then threw out one red 5k chip. Annette instacalled.

Turn: {8-Spades}

Johnson laces his fingers, stares some more, fiddles with his chips and eventually picks up a stack of reds from which 20k made their way over the line. It was nearly pulled up as a string bet, and the dealer reminded him to place chips in the middle in one smooth motion. The bet stood, however, and Annette called it.

River: {6-Clubs}

More chip counting and selecting ensued as Martin Johnson had a look at his stacks of 1,000 chips and then the 5,000 ones in turn, before picking up a stack of the former and plonking it on the felt. His hand headed back for more, but this time the bet was marked String by the dealer and only the 10k he'd put in stood.

"I wish you could have bet more," complained Annette_15 as she paid his {K-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} off, "Then I wouldn't have had to call."
