The two saw 
, which Ralph checked over to Aaron, into the 2300 pot he bet 200, and Ralph’s eyes widened in some sort of fake astonishment and amusement. He called.
A strange card came, the 
, and Ralph again checked. This time Aaron bet 500 into 2700, but now Ralph jammed is last 15,000 or so into the pot.
“You’re out of the tournament,” said Aaron. “And I’m going to slow roll you.”
Ralph indicated his disbelief, but Aaron only continued. “I’m going to slow roll my brother out of a tournament, at last.”
Aaron then slowly turned over the

However, Ralph showed

A blank and they chop. Some choice expletives were heard.
“Two minutes!” exclaimed Ralph. “He wasted two minutes of everyone’s time trying to slow roll me! Can you imagine having to spend thirty-five years with a piece of shit like this?!”
Aaron then felted a short stack while Ralph cheered for him to lose. Good times.

Today’s Six Max NLH event will be wall-to-wall with big name pros and Borgata regulars who are arriving before the Championship gets underway (plus the ones who have busted out of the Almighty). The big buy-in and guarantee always brings out the big guns.
Sixers get 20,000 to start and levels 1-10 are 40 minutes long. Levels 11+ are 50 minutes long and when they reach the final table, they’ll get hour-long levels until a winner is determined.
Players have plenty of time to get in the action since registration remains open until the start of level 9, which should fall at about 7:50pm (following dinner break). Unlimited re-entries are also available until the close of registration.
Cards are in the air here in the rear of the Event Center!
