Robert Feinstein (Lake Worth, FL)
Passing by Table 1, there would be a big pot unfolding, as three players were on the river of a board reading 7 7♣ 3 J♠ Q.  After an unknown player checked his option, A. Nonymous shoved his remaining 7,200 from middle position.  Robert Feinstein (Lake Worth, FL), who was on the button, raised to 20,000.  

The 20,000 raise was enough to put the third player all-in, and after a few moments of thought, he tossed his hand in the muck.  A. Nonymous would quickly turn over A K, but his flush was no good against the J♥ J of Feinstein.  Robert raked in the pot (worth close to 45,000), and now stands as the early chip leader with over 70,000.

"The last time you put something about me on the blog, you jinxed me," Feinstein said as we snapped his photo.  It's known as the "blogger's curse," and while some believe that getting featured on the blog is bad luck, others are ecstatic to be able to show the posts to their friends, family, and followers
