"I Love You, Jerry"

Stephane Tayar has very loudly won a hand against Blair Hinkle.

Hinkle raised to 30,000 preflop and Tayar was the sole caller. They both checked the {K-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {5-Spades} flop, and Tayar bet out 12,000 on the {J-Diamonds} turn; Hinkle called.

The river came down the {8-Spades} and now Tayar bet out 60,000. Hinkle called, and mucked when Tayar turned over pocket eights for a rivered full house. Tayar, meanwhile, celebrated at high volume. "YESSS!" he cried, and turned to Jerry the dealer. "I love you, Jerry, I love you, sir," he said to Jerry, who blushed like a schoolgirl.

Tayar now on 240,000, Blair down to 785,000.
