Dyer Not Quite Done

Level 31 : 100,000/200,000, 100,000 ante

After doubling up his opponents in back-to-back hands it was Michael Dyer's turn to double up. He open-shoved his remaining chips, and after confirming the count of 2,275,000 Michael Rocco made the call.

Michael Dyer: {a-Spades}{9-Spades}
Michael Rocco: {a-Diamonds}{8-Spades}

Dyer was ahead, but by his own words he wasn't feeling too optimistic. The runout of {10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{7-Clubs} probably made him feel a little better.

In the first hand Michael Dyer raised to 500,000 and Louis Salter defended his big blind. After Salter checked the {8-Clubs}{3-Spades}{9-Hearts} flop, Dyer continued for 450,000 and Salter made the call. Both players checked the {6-Hearts} turn and Salter led out on the {5-Spades} river for 700,000, which got an immediate call from Dyer. Salter tabled {k-Clubs}{q-Hearts} for king-high and Dyer tabled {10-Spades}{9-Diamonds} for top pair.

In the next hand, after calling a preflop raise from Dyer, Ben Farrell led from his big blind for 500,000 on the {10-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{9-Hearts} flop and was called by Dyer. After both players checked the {7-Spades} turn Farrell again led out on the {8-Clubs} river, this time for 1,200,000 and was almost beat into the pot by Dyer who quickly tabled {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}.

Ben Farrell raised from the button and Michael Rocco defended his big blind. Both players then checked through to the river on a board of {4-Clubs}{k-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{5-Clubs}, and after Rocco checked a third time Farrell put out a small bet of 200,000.

Rocco thought for a moment and then came over the top with a big check-raise to 1,800,000. Farrell made the call and quickly mucked his hand after Rocco tabled {7-Clubs}{5-Spades} for rivered trip fives.
