Filippi On Right Side Of Super Cooler

We just caught a cooler hand that would make Mr. Freeze from the Batman series cringe. Amnon Filippi and Marcelo Mesqueu were heads up on a board that read {6-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}. Mesqueu checked to Filippi, who bet out 3,700. Mesqueu called, and the pot had about 11,000 in it.

The river came the {q-Diamonds}, and Mesqueu checked one more time. Filippi threw out an over bet of 16,000, and Mesqueu thought for just a few seconds before announcing all in. Filippi SNAP called and showed {6-Clubs}{6-Spades} for flopped quads. Mesqueu shook his head, and showed {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} for a flopped full house.

Filippi missed the reveal, and when he was told what Mesqueu, he was understandably shocked. "Wow thats just so sick. I was praying he had queens. When I saw the first six I was happy. When I saw the second I was like damn I'm not going to make any money."

Well he certainly did. Filippi and Mesqueu were virtually even in chips, with Filippi barely having him covered. He now has over 100,000.
