Card shards
After throwing $200,000 into one massive pot, he forced another player to bottle it by looking him straight in the eye and announcing "you don't wanna call". Having given the matter considerable thought, the opponent in question angrily folded AK face up. Gold promptly smirked and mucked his cards without showing them, in the process riffing all over his frustrated victim's pain. Nice. Excerpted from The Guardian's take on the world Poker championships taking place in, where else, but The Vegas.
