Our chip leader, Al "Sugar Bear" Barbieri, shows no slackening in his hunger for chips. He recently took Levon Torosyan all the way to the river. Torosyan brought it in with the {4-Spades}

{4-Spades}

, then called when Barbieri completed the {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

. Both players checked fourth street; Barbieri called bets from Torosyan on fifth and sixth streets. Down the river, the boards were:

Torosyan: {4-Spades}

{4-Spades}

{4-Clubs}

{5-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

Barbieri:

{K-Diamonds}

{J-Clubs}

{6-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

Barbieri led out for a bet on the river. Torosyan lined up his cards from smallest to biggest, peeked at his hole cards, said, "Nice hand," and folded.
