My winning hand against Jerry Buss

[Ramon Scott]

I'm a dealer at a reservation casino in east San Diego County, and I have dealt to Dr. Buss before. However, on this particular Friday, my day off, I decided to play so I could get some tips in to my fellow dealers.

The 200-500 game hadn't started yet, but Dr. Buss came into the measley 40-200 game.

I make it eight to go UTG with AQ off and get three callers, incl. Dr. Buss in the SB. Flop comes Q with rags and Jerry leads out for 20. I make the reraise to 50, and after the two folders, he makes the call.
Another non-threatening card comes and he checks it.

My bet is 75 and he folds.

Just a moderate pot in a small NL game, but one I will remember.
