"I'll let you pick one," Carmine Tirone said. "If you fold."

Tirone, who won the 2006 Borgata Summer Open Championship event for $267,300, was talking to D.R. Froebel, who was faced with an all-in bet on a board of {2-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{k-Hearts}{3-Hearts}.

Froebel opted to call, committing the remainder of his stack, and showed {k-Spades}{6-Spades}. It was no good against Tirone's {k-Clubs}{2-Hearts} for two pair, however, and the {10-Diamonds} bricked off on the river.

Tirone, who is up to 35,000 chips, said he's been "fishing" today, and finally caught one.
