, checks his option in the big blind after the Crazy Horse limps-in from the small blind. The flop comes 7

and Vaswani checked to Nguyen, who bet out $20,000. Vaswani raised and was called, and the turn was the T
, prompting Vaswani to bet out and Nguyen to raise all-in for $15,000 more.
Crazy Horse makes the call and shows K

Mosca Mutilated
2 years ago
As a very drunk Johnny Lodden berates Ram Vaswani from the rail ("Ram Vashwazi! Did you play that hand good?"), Vaswani cripples David Mosca after Mosca raises from UTG and Vaswani re-raises from the button. Mosca calls and the flop comes 5
5
4
. Mosca checks to Vaswani, who bets, and Mosca calls. The turn is the Q
and the same pattern is followed as Mosca check-calls again. The river is the 4
and again Mosca check-calls the Hendon Mobster, who turns up 4
4
for quads to take the pot.
A few hands later, Mosca raises from the button for about half his stack and Vaswani is quick to re-raise. Action folds back to Mosca, who re-ups again and Vaswani caps it by putting his opponent all-in. Mosca shows A
2
and will need to improve against Vaswani's pocket tens, but cannot as the board comes J
J
9
8
6
to send him to the rail in fourth place. Mosca earns $58,968 for his time.
