Dunst Takes Out Yuen

Tony Dunst
Tony Dunst
It took just two hands for Tony Dunst to relieve Dean Yuen of his entire stack. In the first, Yuen made it 850 to go from the cutoff and was reraised by Dunst, on the button, to 2,500. Yuen called to see a flop of {8-Hearts} {5-Spades} {4-Spades}, which both players checked. On the turn {9-Clubs}, Yuen check-called a bet of 5,500 from Dunst. That took the players to the river {6-Diamonds}. Again Yuen checked and again Dunst bet 5,500.

Yuen went into the tank for about a minute before electing to make the call. Dunst showed down {5-Clubs} {7-Clubs}, having flopped middle pair and rivered a gutshot straight. Yuen was clearly frustrated upon seeing Dunst's hand, but managed a "Good hand," before mucking his own.

Just a few hands later, Yuen again opened to 850. Dunst reraised to 2,700, bringing an all-in bet of 12,000 from Yuen. Dunst quickly called, tabling {10-Spades} {10-Hearts}, a hand that was a huge favorite over Yuen's {5-Spades} {5-Hearts}. With the board running out {10-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {4-Hearts} {K-Clubs} to make a full house for Dunst, Yuen headed for the rail.
