Dwyer Five-Bet Jams

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Michael Dwyer
Michael Dwyer

Derek McDonald opened the action with a raise to 1,500 under the gun. Carl Engdhal called in the cutoff before Michael Dwyer squeezed in a three-bet to 6,000 on the button.

McDonald quickly four-bet to 16,500, forcing Engdhal out of the pot. Dwyer responded by moving all in for 59,600, however, sending McDonald into the tank.

After a few minutes, McDonald opted to muck his cards and forfeit the pot to Dwyer.
