Incredible Sequence for Ove Dyb

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Kiell Ove Dyb just took down four consecutive pots, with two eliminations, to build a 275,000 stack.

The first saw Ove Dyb call an all-in opponent on the flop of {8-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}.

Opponent: {q-}{8-}
Ove Dyb: {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

The opponent was ahead with two pair, but Ove Dyb had plenty of equity with a gutshot to a straight flush draw. The straight came in for Ove Dyb on the {9-Spades} turn, and the {7-Clubs} river sealed the elimination.

On the following hand, a middle position player limped, and Ove Dyb raised to 4,000 on the button. The opponent called, and checked to Ove Dyb on the {a-Spades}{6-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} flop. Ove Dyb fired for 7,000, and the opponent called.

The opponent check-called a 16,000 bet on the {a-Diamonds} turn, and Ove Dyb forced a fold with a 50,000 bet on the {2-Hearts} river.

The same opponent got into it again with Ove Dyb on the very next hand, limping from early position and getting calls from Ove Dyb in the cutoff, a player in the small blind, and Norm MacDonald in the big blind.

The flop came {q-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}, and the early position player bet 5,600 when the action checked to him. Ove Dyb raised to 15,000, and the small blind and MacDonald folded.

The early position player reraised all in, and Ove Dyb called.

Opponent: {j-Hearts}{10-Clubs}
Ove Dyb: {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Ove Dyb was once again behind against an all in player on the flop, but once again a favorable turn put him in the driver's seat. This time it was the {q-Diamonds}, giving Ove Dyb kings full and leaving his opponent drawing dead. The river came the {5-Hearts} and the elimination was sealed.

Not done yet, Ove Dyb opened to 3,000 from the hijack on the following hand, and took down the blinds.
