turn, the small blind checked, the big blind bet 2,000, and Dawson called. The small blind woke up with a check-raise to 9,000. The big blind quickly mucked, but Dawson said he was all in. The small blind called.
Small blind: 
Dawson: 
Both players had trips with kickers on board so they were chopping for the moment. Dawson binked the 
on the river though.
"Nasty beat," he said.
"He hit a two-outer and now he hit a three-outer," someone said of the former champion. "That's what it takes to win MSPTs."
