Tricarico Befuddles Opponent
Alexandro Tricarico raised to 1,000 in early position, and received a call from the player to his immediate left and a player in the small blind.
The dealer fanned 10♠9♣6♦, resulting in checks from the player in the small blind and Tricarico. The player to Tricarico’s immediate left bet 2,200, which saw the player in the small blind fold. Tricarico check-called to bring the turn.
The dealer placed 9♥ on the board, and Tricarico led out with a 2,600 bet, which was immediately called.
The K♥ showed up on the river and Tricarico sized up to a 12,000 bet, which appeared to confuse Tricarico’s opponent.
The player cleared his throat before leaning forward to study the board. Tricarico’s opponent then leaned back and crossed his arms while shaking his head before asking a question.
“Why so much?” the opponent asked.
If he was looking for an answer, none was coming because Tricarico was silent and motionless.
After moments went by, Tricarico’s opponent eventually folded but not before another comment while the pot was pushed to Tricarico.
“I couldn’t figure out why so much,” he said.
