Ryan Dodd

In Level 14 with blinds at 1,600/3,200 (400 ante), "A.Jackson1767" raised to 7,040 from under the gun and was called by Ryan "Whosyourdoddy" Dodd from the button before David "TheKing411" Coleman squeezed for 75,496 from the small blind.

Action was back on "A.Jackson1767" who not only called Coleman's all in but also Dodd's who came over the top for 105,018.

"A.Jackson1767": {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
David "TheKing411" Coleman: {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Ryan "Whosyourdoddy" Dodd: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}

Dodd was ahead with his made hand until the {7-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} flop paired "A.Jackson1767's" ace.

The {k-Clubs} turn gave Coleman more outs but the {5-Hearts} completed the board on the river as "A.Jackson1767" collected both Coleman's and Dodd's bounties.
