Filippi Fails to Fill Up

[user46392]
[user46392]
Amnon Filippi moved all in on third street with the {A-Diamonds} showing -- apparently he didn't look at the other two cards.

He got two callers, and both managed to stay in until seventh, at which point they chopped up the pot and Filippi made his exit.

Filippi: {A-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} ({2-Hearts} {A-Spades} {J-?})
Opponent #1: {5-Spades} {K-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {6-Clubs} ({8-?} {5-?} {9-?})
Opponent #2: {3-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {8-Spades} {K-Hearts} ({K-?} {2-?} {5-?})

Coach Is Here

Jeremy "Coach" Feinberg called bets from his opponent down more or less every street (a third player was in, but folded on fourth street) -- and come seventh, they chopped it up.

Coach: {5-Clubs} {8-Spades} {6-Hearts} {9-Hearts} ({3-Spades} {3-Diamonds} {A-Clubs})
Mr. Opponent: {8-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} {A-Diamonds} ({3-?} {5-?} {K-?})

Heimiller Maneuver

Staying in shape at the tables
Staying in shape at the tables
Is your raising arm getting tired? Do you find that riffling chips just doesn't build the kind of biceps and triceps you're looking for? Then try the Dan Heimiller workout! He's just been spotted doing bicep curls with a chair next to an empty table. Most enterprising, and delightful to see someone getting some exercise right here in the Brasilia Room.

Frickin' busted

Jimmy Fricke was all in on fourth street and his three opponents all managed to make it to seventh street. Jon "pearljammer" Turner made a straight and a low; Steve Sung managed to make a flush to beat him for the high. The fourth player mucked and stayed in, but Fricke mucked and made his way to the exit.

Fricke: {2-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {9-Clubs} {A-Clubs} (muck and leave)
Turner: {6-Hearts} {5-Spades} {4-Hearts} {3-Clubs} ({6-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} {7-Clubs}) for the low
Sung: {7-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} ({A-Diamonds} {2-Clubs} {2-Hearts}) for the high
Mr. Opponent: {J-Hearts} {K-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} (mucked) for absolutely nothing

Steve Sung: 4,300
Turner: 5,000

By the by the gent in seat one at that table would like everyone to know that his name is Mr. Nobody and that he is better than Brian Townsend at rugby. No, we have no idea either.
