In a display of good sportsmanship, Miguel Goncalo handed a chip to the player to his right. “This one belongs to you. It accidentally ended up in my stack.”

If there is such a thing as karma, it played out a couple of hands later when Jason Morin went all in, preflop. Miguel reached into his pocket, and pulled out a quarter. He flipped the coin in the air. It bounced on the table, landing tails-side up. “Okay, I call.”

When Miguel turned over a Ace of Spades King of Spades, he shook his head. “I never win with ace, king. It would have been better if I folded.”

When his opponent, Jason, revealed his hole cards, he was holding Jack of Hearts King of Hearts.

When the dealer revealed the community cards, he snapped a Ace of Hearts 7 of Clubs 10 of Clubs King of Diamonds Jack of Spades onto the board.

Jason stood up, congratulated Miguel, and before walking away, wished all of the players good luck.

Miguel breathed a sigh of relief. “I have not won with that hand since I was in grade one.”
