He's a Rocket 'Bird' Man

The opponent to Joey 'birdman' Boczek's right had moved all-in preflop for 24,400. After counting his stack with another player left to act, Boczek made the call. The original raiser folded, calling out Boczek's hand.

Boczek: {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

The {9-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{j-Clubs} flop gave Boczek a sweat. The {6-Clubs} on the turn really took the air out of his wings, giving his opponent a whole nest of outs. Boczek was able to wipe his beak with relief as the {j-Hearts} swooped in on the river, saving his wings from being clipped.

Grondin Busts Another

We missed the action but the dealer was cutting down Laurence Grondin's stack and {a-Spades}{k-Hearts} was sitting in front of her. The board read {3-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{2-Spades} and her opponent's hand had been mucked. After counting both stacks, it was determined Grondin had more chips and was shipped the pot.
