Tense Standoff Between Rasmussen and Kokalj

Nov 14, 2012

There is a quiet lull surrounding the table. It’s tense and there are two people involved: Jacob Rasmussen and Matej Kokalj. Rasmussen is seated on the button with a bet of 5,200 splayed out on front of him and we witness Kokalj raising to 12,600 from the small blind. Tennis court action as the eyes spring over to Rasmussen and he makes it 21,000 to play. Kokalj thinks this is a great time to wave the white flag and surrenders his hand. As soon as the cards hit the muck the whole atmosphere changes. Clouds dissipate, the sun comes out to play and everyone starts to laugh and hold conversation.

Rasmussen ~ 100,000
Kokalj ~ 70,000
