Palma Finally Wins a Hand, Keeps the Table Entertained
"I would play this tournament if it was on the Moon. Do you think I'll win a hand this tournament? I didn't come all the way into the woods not to win a hand," Nick Palma told his tablemates.
Palma then raised to 800 in the hijack and Steffen Gunthel in the cutoff and button Paco Kaplan called. "You look like you could be in a James Bond movie. You look good with the mustache. I don't know if I could pull off the mustache," Palma said to Kaplan as the flop came K?3?3?. Palma then continued for 1,000.
Both Gunthel and Kaplan quickly folded and Palma tried to stop the dealer from taking in his cards so he could snap a photo but they were already in the muck. "I was going to tell the people back home that I finally won a hand. Beat the James Bond villain," Palma added as the table moved on to the next pot.
