I remain on the lookout for any other players with such huge pun potential.
David a Goliath
flop, and then called his opponent's all-in push for another 2,000 or so.He was admittedly ahead with his
against his opponent's 
, but the backdoor flush he pulled out of the air as the cards came down 
and the heartbreaking 
must have truly sickened his unlucky, now busted, rival.
Flush is the Savior for Seiver
, Joe Jacoby goes call crazy, calling a 1,600 preflop raise from Scott Seiver, before calling a further 1,600, 5,200 and eventual 11,000 all in on the 
board. However, Joe's flopped trips were soon unravelled as Scott revealed 
for the turned flush.Double-up for Seiver.
Annie Cavagnaro Out
Finding herself holding
on the big blind with two limpers, Annie did the decent thing and checked. Imagine her delight when the flop came 
-- she sneakily checked, and one of the limpers bet 3,000. The other limper, in fact one Larry Barbetta, flat-called. Annie check-raised all in for 6,300, the original bettor passed, and Larry Barbetta called. Now imagine Annie's dismay when Larry turned over 
. Two further diamonds on the turn and river and Larry's hand only improved, sending Annie to the rail.
Big Slick Lets Todd Down
flop, later claiming to have held 
. Do we believe him or is he fibbing? Where's Ricki Lake and her lie detector test when you need her?Either way, Eugene has now dropped to circa 16,000 in chips, but remains comfortable with just above the average.
JC is Running Like a Steam Tran
was enough to fend off an 
and 
holding, on a 
board.However, both victims were short-stacked at the time, so JC's stack jumps up to a just-above-average 16,600.
Gowen is Dow-en
She made it 2,100 in early position and one Slava Mostob re-popped her for 4,000 total from the button. Clonie went all in for 4,500, and Slava called. He was ahead with his
up against Clonie's 
, and ahead he stayed all the way on the 
board.
Do the Bart Man
flop, with 
against , but hit a five for a rivered straight and a timely double-through. Bart is now up to 15,600.
