"All in and a call!" we heard the dealer shout on the table right next to our media desk. Somehow we had missed a big pot brewing as Jennifer Tilly and Russell Thomas had gotten their chips in on the turn.

Thomas told us afterward that it had been a limped pot where he (big blind), the player under the gun and Tilly (button) saw a flop of {5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}. Thomas checked and the player under the gun bet. Tilly raised and Thomas called to see things go to the turn. On the {7-Hearts}, Thomas and Tilly got their chips in with Tilly showing {4-Diamonds}{5-Spades} while Thomas tabled {3-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}.

The river {4-Hearts} helped Tilly improve to a better two pair and Thomas got up and made his exit.
