Ready to Talk

With Praz Bansi turning water into wine, I felt now would be an acceptable opportunity to inquire as to the details of his near demise:

"I raised it up with {8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}," he revealed, "and he [Andrew Pantling] just flat called with {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} of diamonds. The flop was {10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}, I check-raised to 20,000 and he just called. It went in on the off-suit jack turn. Think I lost about 80,000 on that pot."

But poker's a roller coaster of a game, and Bansi has been looping-the-loop more than most of late. From 8,000, he has now made a full recovery in the space of just 10 minutes, and is right back in contention with 65,000.
