Poker After Dark - A Curious Call

  On NBC's most popular poker show, Poker After Dark, one amateur player won a chance to put together his Dream Table. Ken Light, who won this chance at one online poker room, tapped Scotty Nguyen, Jen Harman, Phil Hellmuth, Mike Matusow, and his favorite player Daniel Negreanu, and got to play them all.  In this hand Ken started with: ... and limped in from the button. Jen completed her small blind holding: ... and Mike checked his option holding another queen nine hand: ... The flop hit: ... Jen was first to act and she checked, as did Mike. The amateur player bluffed out $600 in tourney chips and waited to see what his favorites would do. Jen made the call, Mike folded away. The turn came: ... and this time both players checked. When the river hit: ... Ken was holding an empty straight draw, but when Jen checked to him again he couldnt help but try another bluff. He fired out $1,000. Jen was at a complete and total loss: never having seen Ken play she didn't know what he was capable of. "Guess it will cost me a thousand to find out," she laughed to Phil. In the end she was just too curious to fold, and made the call. The table laughed in appreciation of Ken's attempt at the bluff.
