Rounders - Mike Making Money



Posted Thu Sep 16, 2004 1:47 am GMT by thumper
Okay, here's a question that I've been dying to ask but up until now, had never found the right forum to ask it in.

Mike walks into Teddy KGB's joint with $10k. He plays Teddy straight up and wins his $10k. So he has $20k. Teddy reminds him as he's leaving the table that he's still up $20k from when he screwed Mike out of $30k. So he pony's up again; straight up, freeze out.

In theory, shouldn't this mean that when he flops the nut straight and beats KGB, he should have $40k?

Mike says:

"Turned my ten grand into just over sixty. Paid fifteen to Grama, six went back to the Chesterfield. As for Worm, well, I figure we're even. And after the ten going back to the professor, I'm back where I started; With three stacks of high society."

How did he make $60k?

Right before they play again after KGB tries to "own" him......Mike McDee says: "Feel free to RELOAD at any time..."

KGB then says: "yeah..(shrugs)...Table stakes."

So it is implied that KGB came in again....and that is why Mike McDee says: "I can go on busting you up all night...."

It is implied that Mike really tore up KGB.
