Duke the Dream Killer

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Matt Cafarella

Matt Cafarella raised from the cutoff and then called Pete Kaemmerlen's three-bet from the small blind.

The latter player then led out for 13,000 on the {j-Hearts}{a-Spades}{5-Spades} flop and Cafarella responded by moving all in for roughly 54,000. Kaemmerlen asked for a count, thought a little, and then quietly said, "I call."

Kaemmerlen: {a-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}
Cafarella: {6-Spades}{4-Spades}

"Come on dealer," Cafarella said hoping Duke the Dealer would deliver him another spade. On some nights Duke the Dealer may be so kind, but not tonight.

Tonight Duke the Dealer was as coldhearted as could be when he ran out the {2-Clubs} turn and {2-Diamonds} river to crush Cafarella's dreams.

Duke the Dealer ... Duke the Dream Killer.
