The End is Ny-berg?

Nyberg: not giving up without a fight
Nyberg: not giving up without a fight
Dean "dinjho" Nyberg was almost felted but has since managed to get back up to almost 10,000 in the space of three hands.

In the first hand the action folded around preflop to Nyberg who raised to 2,000 from middle position. Matt Rolfe reraised to 6,500 from the hijack and the others got out of the way before Nyberg moved all in. Rolfe snap-called.

Rolfe: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Nyberg: {a-?}{k-?}

The board ran out {3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} to leave Nyberg with just 1,200 in chips.

However he managed to double up through Peter Aristidou the very next hand, shoving all in blind with {9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} and managed to hit a pair of sevens on the river against Aristidou's {a-Hearts}{5-?}.

Nyberg then pushed again, this time with {7-Spades}{3-Hearts} against another opponent's {a-Clubs}{10-Hearts} but the poker gods were on his side again after he caught running two pair on a board of {8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}.
