Boyd Shortstacked

Dutch Boyd limped in from early position to find a raise coming from a late position player. Dutch made the call and saw a flop of {3-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {J-Clubs}. Dutch checked-raised the player on the flop, then led out on the turn when the {7-Diamonds} fell. Dutch's opponent called and when the river brought the {A-Clubs}, Dutch checked. His opponent fired 1,000 into the pot, putting Dutch into the tank. After much thought, Dutch decided to call only to see his opponent turn over pocket rockets. Dutch nodded and tossed his cards into the muck. Dutch is still alive in the tournament, but with around 2,300 chips left.
