Niyati Dents Devaney

It was a battle of the blinds that we caught up to just a bit late. The dealer was already running out the {5-Hearts} {5-Clubs} {6-Spades} flop when we approached, and Jim Devaney was knocking the table. Pej Niyati put in a bet of 19,000, but Devaney check-raised to 69,000. Niyati flatted.

The turn brought the {2-Clubs} and a bet of 130,000 from Devaney. Niyati took pause for just a minute, then moved all in for 242,000 total. Devaney tanked and called, and the cards were on their backs.

Showdown
Devaney: {J-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds}
Niyati: {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts}

Devaney needed to find a six to tally the knockout, but the river {4-Spades} was safe for Niyati. He's doubled his way all the way up to about 660,000, knocking Devaney back to 510,000 in the process.

"Down goes Frazier," Niyati said quietly as he stacked up the pot.
