Very Funny Jimmy

Jimmy Sommerfeld decided to test us to see if we were paying attention. Jimmy announced, "and they are both all in." Multiple bloggers jumped up from their seats to see the action. What they were met with was the dealer washing the cards and the crowd roaring with laughter.

Yes, I was one of those bloggers.

After we went back to our seats, Matt Stout came down and jokingly said, "Who the hell messed up my interview?" He then told us how he was in the middle of his interview and had jumped down from the podium to check the action. He then wished the players good luck. One of his buddies told him, "at least you now have time to get to FTOPS."

Another Big Swing

Kai Landry limped into the pot from the button, and David Dao elected to raise. He made it 124,000 to play, and Landry came along to the flop.

The first three cards off the deck were {6-Spades} {6-Diamonds} {2-Hearts}. Dao checked, and Landry kept the pressure on with another 150,000 chips. Waving both hands forward in that familiar gesture, Dao announced, "All in." Quickly, Landry called, putting his own tournament life in jeopardy.

Showdown:
Landry: {Q-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}
Dao: {4-Hearts} {4-Diamonds}

In fine shape for a double up, Landry stood to sweat his fate. The turn and river were safe for him, coming {2-Spades} and {J-Hearts} respectively. He does indeed double up, essentially trading chip stacks with Dao.
