The Grand Page #10

---

Ooh, that was a tough

beat out there.

Going in with pocket 8s.

I know, I know.

I got a bad beat.

Yeah.

Please leave me

alone, okay?

Hey, I told you already,

I'm on to you, okay?

Stop it, please.

Stop what?

I'm on to you.

How'd you get all the way

to this final table

by not knowing

what you're doing?

It's bullshit, okay?

You may be fooling

everybody else,

but you're not fooling me,

all right?

This is my game, pal.

Stop it.

This is my game, chief.

Don't take out your

family problems on me.

You got problems

with your dad,

you got problems

with your sister.

I don't have

family problems.

I teach kids every day,

every year.

You're a textbook case.

Grow up.

What are you--

Just learn to love them.

I'm just saying I know.

I don't think you're--

You think you

know everything,

but you don't.

Let's take a look

at our leaderboard.

Jack has a commanding

lead right now with

Larry's right behind him,

Andy and Lainie

are pretty close together,

and Harold is bringing up

the rear with 870,000.

Are you okay?

Small, big,

Yeah, I am.

Looks like Jack's

in a little bit

of trouble here.

Larry with the best hand,

a pair of queens.

Call.

And Jack making the bet,

looking for an ace.

A club comes on the turn,

increasing his chances to 32%,

but Larry is still

in control.

[Dealer]

Big bet from

Larry Schwartzman.

Call.

And a call from Jack Faro.

Jack needs an ace,

a 5, or a club.

And a club on the river gives

Jack Faro the best hand.

Disaster card

for Larry Schwartzman.

The pot is very big here.

It's going to be

very difficult for Larry

to lay this hand down.

Tough spot for Larry,

but he's definitely

a good enough player

to lay it down.

All in.

[Dealer]

All in.

But he goes all in.

This is an immediate call

from Jack Faro.

Jack does have

the nut flush.

Queen, 7, 8, 6, nut flush.

Winner. Big hand

for Larry Schwartzman.

And Larry Schwartzman

will be eliminated

from this final table.

Gee, that was fun.

Aw, man.

This was a lot of fun,

you know that?

Yeah.

You did good.

Played the best I could.

Thought I did

a pretty good job.

Gambled. That's why

they call it gambling.

And, uh, it's not--

it's not the most

important thing.

And my sister's still in it.

She's gonna kick ass.

You played good.

Dad, he caught

a runner-runner flush.

What the hell

am I supposed to do?

Yeah, what do you mean?

Why are you knocking

yourself out?

That's what happened.

You had the best hand,

he got lucky.

You played good.

Yeah, I mean,

that's what I'm saying.

I mean-- I mean--

That's what happens.

It's a stupid game.

Sometimes people

get lucky, they win,

they shouldn't even

be in the hand.

To me, that's not how

a good player plays.

I know, that was ridiculous.

I totally could've taken that.

Yeah, you win that hand,

you're gonna go on,

you're gonna go

all the way.

That's my opinion.

The name of the game,

I guess.

Poker. That's what the say.

That's the name of the game.

Poker.

Yeah.

Is that fresh fruit?

Yeah, yeah, it's--

Do you want any?

It's fresh?

Well, I mean--

It looks old.

It's-- I mean,

it's been here for a while.

I didn't have no lunch.

Oh, well, take it.

It's free, you know,

so I know that'll--

Here, I'll give you a boat.

Yeah, give me one.

All right.

What could that jerk call you

when he got nothing?

I mean, yeah.

I mean, I should've gone--

That's honeydew.

I want the cantaloupe.

Oh, I'm sorry.

That watermelon looks

good in the back there.

Oh, yeah, yeah.

Remember, your mother

used to love watermelon?

Yeah.

She could eat a whole

watermelon by herself.

She did a bunch,

didn't she?

Yeah, remember that?

All right,

thank you, Larry.

You played good.

Don't knock yourself out.

Well, thanks.

This looks old.

I'm not gonna eat this, Larry.

It looks old.

It's not your fault.

I'm not saying--

All right, well,

don't eat it, then.

I'll get you a sandwich.

I'll get you a sandwich.

Yeah, yeah,

let's get a sandwich.

Four players remaining,

and Harold Melvin

is still hanging in there.

He takes a nice-sized pot

from Lainie Schwartzman,

who has quietly

built up her stack.

That adds 500,000

to Harold's chips.

You're building his stack.

Yeah, I guess I just put

that little brainiac f***er

back in the game.

You have the vocabulary

of a drunken spice miner

and the hairstyle

of an Arrakean whore.

Oh, man, that's really

gonna set me back, Harold.

You know, it's interesting

that he brings it up,

because I was once

with an Arrakean whore.

You know,

I'm not really sure--

No, no, I'm serious,

and the weird thing was,

she had a penis.

Mike, Arrakean whores

are from the book Dune.

Well, that's not

what she said.

Science fiction.

I miss your brother.

I got to know him

a little bit.

We chatted.

I miss him, too.

I don't miss him.

Me, neither.

Just 'cause he's out,

let's not make him

into a good guy

all of a sudden.

No player's been

more charmed

than Andy Andrews

here at The Grand.

Every single time he's

needed the miracle card,

it seems to be

right there for him.

He's been the chip leader

pretty much the entire way,

and it looks like

his streak of luck continues.

He's pulled a monster hand:

pocket queens.

I will make it 800,000.

Raising to 800,000.

That's a very

nice-sized raise.

Jack Faro, looking at

the king-jack of clubs,

will call.

Just the two of you now.

Tough break for Andy.

King on the flop gives Jack

the top pair, pair of kings.

I'll check.

[Dealer]

Checking.

Let's see, now.

All in.

[Dealer]

All in.

Why not? I call.

[Dealer]

Call. Let's see 'em.

He's got you covered.

This is a real setback

for Andy Andrews.

He's called off all his chips

with pocket queens,

and finds himself

just 13% to win.

[Dealer]

Pocket queens.

King-jack.

[Andy]

A queen would be good.

Another king.

[Lainie]

Holy...

Jack on the turn.

No help for Andy Andrews.

He needs one of the two

remaining queens in the deck.

He's been lucky the whole time.

He could pull the miracle card.

Can he do it?

Can he pull that queen?

[Andy]

A queen would be good.

Ooh, six of spades.

It's the end of the rainbow

for this Cinderella story.

[Dealer]

Andy Andrews.

That's right, Andy Andrews.

Sh*t. Good game, Andy.

Thank you.

You played well.

No, I didn't.

That was a terrible move.

I know.

We'll get a bite

and talk about it, huh?

I would like that.

Me, too.

I had the best hand,

and I...

I played it exactly

how an amateur would.

Harold Melvin's in a very

difficult situation here.

He is severely short-stacked.

He's picked up a pair of tens

to Jack's ace-king.

He needs the action.

This is his only way

back into contention.

Here's the flop.

King-4-4.

It's absolutely terrible

for Harold.

Jack's now a 92%

favorite to win.

All in.

Harold hung in there

all day,

but I don't see how

he can escape this one.

This guy has nine lives.

Pot's right.

Let's see 'em.

Harold, all in.
