Filippi Gets His Wish

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 0 ante
Amnon Filippi
Amnon Filippi

Amnon Filippi called a pot-sized raise preflop from an opponent, then an all-in bet on a flop of {j-Spades}{q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}.

Filippi: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{k-Spades}{4-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{9-Spades}

"I just need a ten," Filippi asked.

Ask and you shall receive - the turn was the {10-Diamonds}, giving Filippi a straight. The player needed a nine or an ace to fill up, but the {4-Spades} bricked off on the river.

Filippi is now up to 270,000 chips.
