Laypo Lands the First Blow, Casey Finishes Off Faragi
Joseph Faragi bet 16,000 from the cutoff on a flop of 3♦7♣7♠ and Troy Laypo called under the gun.
Faragi then bet 25,000 on the K♣ turn, and Laypo moved all in for 52,500. Faragi snap-called with K♠Q♣, but Laypo had A♦7♦ for trips.
The river was the 5♣ and Laypo doubled up.
The next hand, a player in early position raised to 8,500 and Faragi put in his last 26,000 in middle position. Jay Casey then reshoved in the small blind, and the rest of the table got out of the way.
Joseph Faragi: J♣J♦
Jay Casey: A♣10♦
The J♠2♠5♦ flop put Faragi comfortably ahead with top set. "Just don't put runner-runner," Faragi pleaded with the dealer, but the Q♦ fell on the turn to give Casey some outs with a straight. The K♠ river gave Casey his straight, and Faragi shot out of his seat and tossed Casey his penny card protector.
"Here, take that too. That is a f**king f**ked up hand," Faragi said on his way to the rail.
