Eyster Fries the Opposition

Rony Halimi moved in for his last, er, 29,000 in early position and Gianni Giaroni re-shoved for, well, 33,000. Blinds are 6,000/12,000, remember. Oops. Kevin Eyster called from the small blind, as did the gent in the big blind, and they saw a flop.

Flop: {5-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {Q-Spades}

Both blinds checked.

Turn: {4-Spades}

Eyster bet out 32,000 and the big blind folded. All three players flipped their cards, and the two shorties discovered that they were drawing dead.

Halimi: {A-Clubs} {5-Spades}
Giaroni: {K-Hearts} {6-Hearts}
Eyster: {A-Spades} {6-Spades} for a flush

River, for the sake of completeness: {2-Diamonds}

Both players headed to colled their money, while Eyster setled back down to his 1.85 million stack. Although as chip leader he's in rather a good position to be taking home an awful lot of money this week, he's still keen on avoiding the Monte Carlo prices. No €30 hamburgers for him - he produced a red McDonalds carton and casually asked the table, "Fries, anyone?"
