Both players slowed down and checked, and Abdella showed 83 for a flopped full house.

"Good flop," tablemate Awita said.

"Not for me," Barone added.

"One of us was going to have a good start, one of us was going to have a bad start," Barone added as both he and Abdella had just joined this table.
