Toto Boosts Stack

In Hold'em: Toto Leonidas raises and gets four callers, including John D'Agostino. The flop of {2-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} loses everyone but Leonidas and D'Agostino who cap it. Leonidas bets the turn and is called and likewise for the river. Leonidas shows {A-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for the boat and D'Agostino mucks.

Small Change Maybe, But it's Mine

David Grey
David Grey
David Grey wants his change, Now! Evidently the dealer took a little too long to give Grey his change from the pot (about 2000) and he was making a point of it. Bari Sklar decided to be the peace-maker and induce an apology. He wasn't making much progress and Bill Gazes just wanted to move to another table rather than listen to the banter. Sam Farha took the opportunity to lean back in his chair and relax. "Come on David, just apologize to the dealer. It's only 2,000 anyway." "I don't care, it's my 2,000," Grey said. Back and forth, until Bill Gazes finally asked the floor if he could move to another table. The dealer continued to deal, and all settled back into playing their cards. Sklar mumbled, "it was only 2,000." Grey just ignored him and went on to play the next hand.

Lucky "10" on the End

In a three-way pot between Ali Eslami, Mike Sexton and Dewey Tomko, the board came {5-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{4-Spades}-A-10. All three showed A-2 for the same low and a three-way split. Sexton was the only one to make a pair when he caught a 10 on the river, and took the high. After the hand Sexton was up to 120,000, Tomko had 135,000 and Eslami was at 100,000.
