Dickisin In the Lead

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Richard Dickisin raised from early position and Marius Oproescu got his stack of 100,000 all in after a little raising war to see himself at risk in a typical coin flip. Oproescu held {J-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} and Dickisin had two over cards in {A-Hearts} {K-Diamonds}. The board ran out {6-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {10-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} to give Dickisin the higher pair and chip lead for now.

Spearing Spikes Queen

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Martin Spearing raised and then gave opponent Thomas Victor "an evil look" before the latter moved all in out of the big blind. Spearing figured he would flip most of the times and called with {A-} {Q-} to face pocket tens on the other side of the table. Victor flopped a gutshot but Spearing would find a queen on the turn to score the knockout.

"He then stood up, said nice hand and we shook hands," Spearing added. Another player on the table noted "I think he spit in them before" and Spearing laughed. "I thought that was for good luck." You gotta love the banter at the poker tables in the UK.
