3166 Eric Froehlich Eliminated by Michael Squeaky Winnett
Photo: If you knew that Eric Froehlich (far left) and Michael "Squeaky" Winnett (walking, top right) were photographed after an all-in situation, you’d probably think that Winnett was walking away after busting out. But no, he walked away in celebration for some reason, while Froehlich was eliminated and left momentarily stunned at the table.

Eric Froehlich is all in for about 190,000 from the button following a Michael Winnett early-position raise to 24,000. Winnett calls with [AhQh] and has Froehlich’s [QsJs] dominated.

"Hearts hearts hearts," yells Winnett.

The flop falls [Kd7c2c] to keep Winnett ahead, but the [Jc] lands on the turn to give Froehlich the lead.

"Aww he gets so lucky…ten ten ten!" yells Winnett again.

The river isn’t a ten, but it’s just as good as the [Ac] river falls to clnch the pot for Winnett.

An excited Winnett jumps up and down in celebration as Froehlich quietly makes his exit.

"Feels so good to make the right read," exclaimed Winnett.

"Yeah, great read," commented Paul Volpe sarcastically.

Michael Winnett  –  710,000  (59 bb)
