Anna Wroblewski raises to $20,500 leaving only $14,000 behind. Gil Nagar thinks for a few minutes. Wroblewski says, "Usually when you think that long you fold." Then Wroblewski bets me, the tournament reporter, $100 that he will fold. I decline the bet, and immediately regret it when Nagar just calls. The flop comes 9 5 4 and Wroblewski checks, asking aloud why Nagar didn't just put her all in. Nagar goes all in and Wroblewski starts to complain. "It's not even fair. This is bullcrap. I can't even come back with only $14,000," she says. After realizing she has two runner runner draws, she calls. She shows A 7 and is ecstatic to realize Nagar has J 8 for the flush draw. It's not until she has finished getting a banana from her boyfriend that she realizes the turn and river came 9 Q to double her up.
