I was at the Taj a few days ago scoping out some games, the local 10-20 and the 15-30 plus.......now I don't remember what table it was, and the funny thing is......I had just read an article about a similar hand just like this in Card Player Magazine about STU UNGAR CALLING the 1990 winner of WSOP with 10 high when the played heads up.
The guy on the button (looked sort of young) called on the button. the small blind raised and the BB 3-bet. the button called as did the small blind.
The flop came up 8 3 5 I don't remember the suits
The SB checked, immediately after he checked the button started talking to him I guess to get a read on him or something, the BB bet out and the button thought about it and called.
The SB folded. ?? That was strange.
On the turn fell an 8. The BB lead out and the the button started with his chatter, I honestly don't remember what they were saying but the button called.
On the river fell a 5 and the BB bet out.
The button said something to him like you don't have anything. The button called. The BB flung his cards in the muck while a 4 was flased.
Did the button get lucky making this play. The button flipped up 10h9h. saying that he called because he knew he didn't have anything.
Could this guy be this good or did he just get completely lucky. These are the calls I dream about making. Given this position would you call with 10high???????
