Hachem quickly checked to Lackovic who . . . folded. That's right, he folded.
Lackovic told us he looked over at Joe's side of the screen and thought that he'd shoved all in, so he pressed the fold button. "You'd figure they'd have some kind of button that tells you it's free to check," Lackovic said after the hand.
A couple of minutes later, Jonny "YoYo" Vincent walked over to Aleks' table and asked, "Can I buy 50% of your remaining action in this tournament, Aleks . . .? You donkey."
Aleks was left with 8,000 in chips after the mishap.
He also told us that the prop bet is still on, but it'll have to wait until the guys who are doing the pull-ups are finished with the tournament.
The players: A (roughly) 200 lb., well-built Aussie with an athletic frame and an extremely short (approx. 4' 10"?) and skinny Aussie with a normal frame.
The wager: Gavin has bet the larger of the two Aussies that the shorter and skinnier one (Justin) can do more pull-ups than the bigger guy. They've agreed to bet $300 and Gavin promised that he would "take care of" Justin for giving full effort to the bet.
We'll report on the results of the bet later on.
"I've got K-Q," Laak told O'Donnell, as he considered a call. If he indeed had K-Q, Lack would've had two pair. "See, look, I'll show the guy next to me," Laak said, as he motioned to cuff his hands over his cards, giving the impression that his neighbor could see them - though we're unsure if he really could.
O'Donnell eventually laid down his hand and questioned Laak afterwards, "Did you really have king, queen?"
Laak replied, "After this hand (two hands after the hand in question), come around the table and I'll show you what I had," fully aware that the PokerPro tables only store the most recent hand played in the hand history. Basically, Laak was attempting to put O'Donnell on tilt and it almost worked!
O'Donnell took the bait and walked around to the other side of the table to have a look at Laak's hand history. The cards O'Donnell saw were not king-queen, and Laak kept a straight face playing it off like he'd successfully bluffed O'Donnell out of the hand. "You bluffed me earlier," Laak said.
A moment passed before O'Donnell realized he wasn't looking at the cards from the same hand and both he and Laak had a good laugh at the situation.
