Dirksen Wins Huge Flip Against Kuznia

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Dustin Dirksen won a key race.
Dustin Dirksen won a key race.

Brett Kuznia three-bet to about 13,000 after an early-position raise from Dustin Dirksen. When action folded back to Dirksen, he shoved all in. Kuznia called, though he didn't seem thrilled about it.

Kuznia: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Dirksen: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}

"Classic," Dirksen said, and indeed we had a classic flip that decides so many tournament lives.

This time, it was Kuznia on the wrong end of it when the board ran out {j-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}, and Dirksen vaulted to the chip lead while his opponent hit the rail.
