Level 7
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
In the Jamshidi household, it's Torpekay Habashzada, wife of Sirous Jamshidi, who has the Borgata trophy on the shelf.
Her one and only reported tournament cash was in the 2010 Borgata Summer Poker Open $560 Deepstack NLH event, which she won for $67,877.
Level 7
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Sirous Jamshidi is inarguably one of the most accomplished players in today's flight. With more than $2 million in reported tournament earnings, you would expect a long list of titles to his credit. He has just one, however, in the 2006 WSOP Circuit $1,570 NLH event.
Although they were not wins, what he does have is five six-figure scores. His best live cash of $659,730 came with his 16th place finish in the 2006 WSOP Main Event. His second-best live cash of $367,794 was for a runner-up finish in the 2010 Borgata Winter Poker Open $3,500 Championship NLH event, which was won by Jeff Madsen.
So what do you prefer? Titles or dollars? For some players, it's all about the Benjamins!

Three players made it to the river with a board of 
and Seat 4 bet 27,000. Seat 7 raised to 125,000, then Richie Smith jammed.
Seat 4 called all-in for less and Seat 7 made the overcall. His 
flush was beat by Seat 4's 
flush, but Smith had them both beat with 
for the turned full house. He scooped it all, felting Seat 4 in the process.

: 300/600, 600 ante
Joe Malebranche was part of the seven-way adjusted payout deal that ended Event #3: $600 Deepstack Kick-Off NLH event, earning himself $58,915 for fourth place.
He's hoping for a repeat performance here in the Almighty Stack, which will also conclude on Saturday, one week after his bankroll-boosting finale of Event 3.
That's not even his best live cash though. Last month during the WSOP Circuit in Baltimore, he finished second in the main event for more than $69,000
