Ajayi Looking to Play Some More Golf Tomorrow

Level 12 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Dapo Ajayi

Denver's Dapo Ajayi hasn't played much poker since January, which is when he finished runner-up in the WSOPC Thunder Valley for $91K. However, he had the itch and opted to travel to Grand Falls yesterday. A golf aficionado, he's already taken advantage of the property's award-winning course by playing three rounds already. It's looking like he'll have the opportunity to play even more tomorrow if he can bag the big stack he's currently sitting on.

In a recent hand, the under-the-gun player moved all in for 36,500 and Ajayi isolated with a three-bet from the hijack. The rest of the players folded and the hands were turned up.

Dapo Ajayi: {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

It was a flip and Ajayi was just looking to hold. That's exactly what he did as the board ran out a clean {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{q-Diamonds} to give him the knockout.
