Hand #43 - Filtz

[user4144]
[user4144]
Kevin Song and Justin Fitz limp, Dario Minieri folds the small blind and Seth Fischer checks the big.

{5-Spades}{2-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

Checked around to Filtz who bets 75,000. Fischer and Song both fold.

Hand #42 - Minieri

[user46392]
Song button-raises to 75,000, and Minieri is the only caller.

Flop: {2-Spades} {5-Spades} {8-Hearts} -- check, check.

Turn: {10-Clubs} -- check, check again.

River: {5-Clubs}

Now Minieri bets out 150,000. Song doesn't fancy it, and Minieri takes the pot.

Hand #40 - Minieri

[user46392]
[user46392]
After being rather quiet for a little while, Minieri is now back to raising at every opportunity - he makes it 81,000 from the button. No one wants to tangle with him at this point, and he takes down the blinds and antes uncontested.

Hand #39 - Minieri

[user4144]
[user4144]
Dario re-checks his cards from the small blind before announcing a raise of 81,000. I think that extra 1,000 made the difference, as Seth Fischer quickly passed.

Hand #38 - Filtz

[user46392]
[user46392]
Fischer raises to 60,000 utg, and Filtz announces all in from the small blind, pushing his total 683,000 stack into the middle. With his eyes focused on the felt and not a muscle twitching, he looks like he might be a monk praying. He's not, though.

Meanwhile Fischer is threading chips with his right hand, his left propping up his head. He's looking all around and is smiling quietly to himself. He folds, and Filtz wins the pot.

Hand #37 - Fischer

[user4144]
[user4144]
The play halts at Seth Fischer who riffles his chips before announcing raise - 60,000 to play.

Justin Filtz looks him up and down from the big blind, but ultimately opts for the fold.

Hand #36 - Song

[user46392]
[user46392]
Filtz raises it up to 60,000 utg and it folds around to Song, who, after a moment's chip-threading deliberation, announces a reraise -- he goes for a chunky 150,000 on top. Filtz folds.
