Full Tilted

Peter Gould, Roland de Wolfe and two others see a flop with 80,000 in the middle already.

It reads {8-?} {7-Spades} {5-Hearts}.

Gould moves all in and only de Wolfe hangs around with an all-in call.

Gould reveals {8-?} {9-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {J-Spades}.
De Wolfe reveals {K-Spades} {3-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {2-?}.

The turn comes {4-Diamonds} and river {2-?}.

Gould takes down the big pot and is up to 155,000.

De Wolfe on the other hand is out.

Gould commented, "He must've still been on tilit from earlier."

Rush on Gould's Stack

Peter Gould limped from the button, a player in the small blind raised to 5,000, and Gould called.

The flop came {9-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}. The small blind bet 10,000, Gould raised to 25,000, and he was reraised to 77,500 total. Gould made the call, showing {Q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{5-Hearts}. Meanwhile, his opponent had A-K-J-10 for the flopped straight.

The turn was the {8-Spades} and the river the {6-Spades}, and Gould lost half his stack. He's down to 82,500.

Tino Lechich -- On 100,000 Now
A flurry of action erupts at Table #1 as Frank Kesellar calls all in holding {K-Diamonds} {K-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}.

His opponent is Tino Lechich and he has {A-Clubs} {A-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {9-Clubs}.

The dealer has gotten as far as the turn and the board reads {7-Hearts} {A-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} {7-Clubs}.

The river comes {8-Clubs} meaning Lechich scoops in the pot and eliminates the jovial Kesellar.
