and you are?if you wrote it, edit it,With the clock about to strike midnight, Fidler was dealt Q-9. Baskin was dealt A-4. Baskin made a raise and Fidler called. The flop came 9-6-5. Fidler had top pair and bet 17,000. Baskin called. A deuce on the turn gave Baskin an inside straight draw. Fidler bet 50,000 and Baskin called. "I knew that if I caught a three or an ace, I would win [the tournament]," Baskin explained. "It didn't cost me that much to call, so I did." Baskin's call turned out to be a brilliant decision. A three fell on the river. The final board showed 9-6-5-2-3, giving Baskin a straight -- ace to five.actually a straight, deuce to sixalso, good timing on the tourney, a possible game 7 NBA Finals game. Hope notthanks FCP
