While we were checking in on one of our chip leaders, Francesco "Cheech" Barbaro, we found a player who was all in blind. Picking it up on the river, the board was and the current low hand was
and the current high hand
for Aces and eights.
The table encouraged the player to flip one card at a time and he obliged. A was the first card off and the table, who seemed to be rooting for the individual, jumped up a little in unison. The second card was a
and the third a
. Although he had no shot at the low now, he still had a few outs to take the high and stay alive. He slowly peeled the last card and it was an
giving him a full house and the table celebrated with him.
The chips he won weren't even 3,000 but all you need is a chip and chair! Barbaro, who was one of the all in players biggest fans during the hand, has much more than just one chip. He has climbed all the way to 47,000 now.
We just overheard a player ask a floorman “Are there any taxi cabs around here?” The floorman was obviously confused so the player clarified that he needed a cab because he had to go to the bathroom but didn’t want to miss a couple of hands. Needless to say, he was directed to the nearest bathroom and on his way there, shouted “Deal me out”. The floorman jokingly said sure as the players around had a good laugh.
