Busted a dealer from Mirage

I played at Mirage last night.
A 60 year old Mirage poker dealer was playing too. He was one seat to my right.
He was bragging that since they are slow, he can play poker ON THE CLOCK (!).
He’s “making 3 times the money playing poker than he is dealing poker”

$2/$5 No limit - cash game.

I re-raised his $15 pre-flop raise – I had KK
I made it $40 and he called.
Heads-up, low flop.
2-4-8

Check, Check.

Turn 2-4-8-J

He bet $50, I call, hoping he does not have JJ!
River 2-4-8-J-K and he bets $100.
I shove all in for (his last) $170 and he instantly calls with JK!

WOW! (The flush hit on river too)


Go back to dealing sir!
