Dickstein Cracks Aces

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Mark Dickstein opened to 1,300 from middle position and action folded around to the small blind who three-bet to 3,500. The big blind then cold four-bet to 12,500 and Dickstein responded by moving all in. The small blind quickly folded while the big blind snapped with the covering stack to put Dickstein at risk.

Mark Dickstein: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Big Blind Player: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}

Dickstein was in rough shape, though it should be noted that earlier in the hand the {a-Clubs} dealt to John Auville was exposed. That fact became of particular importance after the flop came {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}{4-Spades} to vault Dickstein into a commanding lead. The {j-Hearts} turn left the big blind player hoping to hit either a ten or the single remaining ace to eliminate Dickstein but the comeback was not to be as the {j-Diamonds} completed the board to improve Dickstein to a full house.
