Billy The Croc Back Up to 50K

Stud:

David Oppenheim (X-X) {7-Spades} {K-Diamonds} {9-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} (X)

Billy Argyros (X-X) {A-Diamonds} {Q-?} {5-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} (X)

James Mackey (X-X) {4-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} {Q-?}

Billy "The Croc" Argyros completed on third street, James Mackey raised, David Oppenheim called, and Argyros called all in. On fourth street Mackey checked, Oppenheim bet and Mackey called. On fifth Mackey checked again, Oppenheim bet, and Mackey gave it up, putting Oppenheim heads up with Argyros.

Billy the Croc turned up {Q-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {3-Clubs} on the river for queens full of threes and Oppenheim mucked. The Croc dragged the pot, increasing his stack to 50,000.

During the hand, Michael DeMichele, who has been seated to Argyros' left for most of the day, was moved to another table. As he departed, the Croc joked to him, "Piss off! You've been my nemesis all day!"
