Plucky Chris Bjorin

The irremovable Chirs Bjorin
The irremovable Chirs Bjorin
Plucky Chris Bjorin, who's harder to remove than gum on your shoe, has just doubled up to 200,000 and looking more and more likely to creep onto that final table.

All in against Dustin Dirksen, Bjorin needed to avoid a king with {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} against {K-Spades}{10-Hearts}. The {6-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{7-Clubs} flop was a nice one, but the {10-Spades} turn was even nicer, Dirksen drawing dead before the {2-Hearts} river.

Dirksen -- 450,000
Bjorin -- 200,000
