Old School Meets the New School
We caught an enormous pot developing on the turn, with the board reading 
. Steve Brecher had moved all in over the top of a 5,500 bet, and a third player shoved as well.
With the action back on the original bettor, he agonized over his decision for thirty seconds or so before mucking his 
face up.
Brecher then rolled over the 
, which was crushed against the 
tabled by his opponent. The player had turned the low end of the straight, with flush and straight flush redraws, and the 
on the river only strengthened his hand.
Meanwhile, the player who mucked the nut flush draw was understandably distraught, shooting out of his seat to commiserate with his friends on the rail, before returning to sound the clarion call of his generation of poker players.
"Who was that?," he exclaimed, when a tablemate asked if he knew who Brecher was. "That was a fish! Dude played that hand terrible from start to finish..."
Apparently, for the next generation of poker players, a man with nearly $3 million in live tournament earnings, a WPT title, and a vital role in the creation of online poker programming rates as a fish. The man who mucked the winner, however, remains a living legend... at least in his own eyes.
