Andy Black Making Himself Known

MarcC

Andy Black is being very vocal and helping the floor staff do their job. Whenever there is a seat free he's shouting to get it filled up as soon as possible. His current dealer may be a little shy to get himself heard. No fear of that happening with Mr Black!

Fickle Aces

Shamus

Alex Kravchenko lost most of his stack when his J-10-9-7 failed to overcome his opponent's A-A-x-x. The flop of Q-8-5 was promising for Kravchenko, but neither the turn nor river brought him his needed straight card.

On the next hand, Kravchenko picked up aces himself, drawing {5-Hearts}
