Katz Talks His Opponent into Folding
"Don't record my bust," Cary Katz told PokerNews as the heads-up action was picked up with 24,000 in the pot and a board of 
. "I need him to fold" Katz continued, gesturing towards his opponent on the button. Katz had already fired a bet of 10,200, with action now on that opponent.
Katz then turned his attention towards speaking directly to his opponent, "I'd never bluff you, [after how you've played], I would never bluff you."
His opponent tossed in a single chip to make the call, before tossing in the others to complete the call.
"Oh you're sick!" Katz exclaimed as that first calling chip hit the felt. "You never fold!"
On the 
river, Katz wanted to bet again, but was having some trouble with sizing. "What's the most you'll call? Pick a number," he requested of his opponent.
"600" he responded.
"600? Really?" Katz responded. A few moments later, Katz pushed a pile of chips, more than half his remaining stack, into the middle, explaining "I don't even know what it is, I'm just fucking putting it in there," as he did so. This earned a quick fold from his opponent, and the pot belonged to Katz.
"Show the bluff," requested a player from across the table.
"I'll show you one," Katz obliged, as he flipped over the 
. "I'll show you the bad one."
Although the opponent didn't share what he had folded, he seemed pleased with his decision after seeing Katz's ace.
