He plonked out a big stack of oranges and four-bet.

"How much is it? I call," said Wattel. It was 171,000, and after the bet was counted out both players stood pat.

"Look at me," said Sheikhan as he pondered his decision post-draw. "I'm all in."

"I call," said Wattel.

"Eight-six," said Sheikhan.

"EIght-six-five-three-deuce," shot back Wattel, tabling exactly that:

"Motherfucker," said Sheikhan, tabling one worse
