Boxell Fires Back At Dunst

Leo Boxell raised to 8,000 from middle position and Tony "Bond18" Dunst called out of the big blind. The flop came down {A-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {9-Clubs} and Dunst checked. Boxell checked behind.

The turn brought the {J-Diamonds} and Dunst fired 15,500. Boxell then raised to 40,500 and Dunst looked very surprised.

"You can't be raising me with much else." commented Dunst as he double checked his cards a few times before finally flinging them into the muck.
