. "Anthony Zinno ladies and gentlemen".
The river was the 
. "Oh, overkill. Queen-seven everyone"
Kassouf was noticeably perturbed by this hand which saw Zinno move up to just over 10,000. "Make sure you get that in the blog"
Meanwhile, Zinno and Dietrich Fast sat next to him were reminiscing. The two of them won the LAPC in back-to-back years. "Get it in with queen-seven!
"Those were good times," Fast said to Zinno. "When we won everything. Did you have a good year?"
"I won Venetian!" said Zinno, referring to the $466,670 victory back in July. "That's how Zinno plays; wait for queen-seven"
