We found Sean Small facing a 550 bet from an opponent in the big blind with the board reading 
. Small silently dropped a stack of chips into the middle for a raise to 1600. His opponent folded.

Check out a video of PokerStars Team Pro Mickey Peterson speaking to Kristy about implied odds and how this concept applies to poker.
We found Jennifer Tilly all in for around 4,500 with the cutoff all in behind her. Both players had shoved over a raise to 4,800 from the big blind, who was now tanking against the cutoff's shove. Finally, he folded.
Tilly: 
Cutoff: 
"You fold an ace?" Tilly asked the big blind.
"Ace-king," he replied.
"Well, I need hearts then," she said.
Unfortunately for her, the flop came an all-black 
, and the 
turn and 
river did nothing for her.

The cutoff at Table 1 opened to 375, and Oliver Gill Gaber reraised to 1,000. The player in the small blind made it 2,200 to go, and the cutoff folded. Gill Gaber thought briefly before announcing all in. After tanking for about two minutes, the small blind called.
Gill Gaber: 
Small blind: 
The board ran out 
, and Gill Gaber's kings were good.
