Amnon Filippi Has Found More Chips Here on Day 2

Holding {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}, Amnon Filippi elected to reraise a player in the small blind, making it 22,000 to play after that player opened for 13,000. The small blind was unafraid, however, and he shipped the rest of his 87,000 stack with the {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}.

Filippi was in a dominant position, and the flop of {8-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{a-Spades} put him even further ahead of the suited connector held by his opponent.

The {10-Clubs} on the turn made things interesting, giving the small blind a gutshot draw to make Broadway, while giving Filippi a sweat.

River: {7-Clubs}

The brick on fifth street sealed the deal, sending the rest of the small blind player's chips to the dangerous pro from New York City.
