Dwan Down

The action folded around to the player on the button who open-shoved for 2,425 before the flop; the player on the small blind folded, but Tom Dwan thought about it for a short while before making a value call with {K-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}.

The button quickly rolled up {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and it held after the dealer spread the board of {8-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{7-Hearts}{2-Spades}. Not that it matters to Dwan at this stage - he's still sitting comfortably with about 40,000 in chips.
