Five WSOP bracelets tend to win one a bit of respect. Or fear. Or what the French call... I don't know what.

Allen Cunningham raised to 1,200 from the button and the player in the big blind called. Both checked the {2-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

{10-Hearts}

flop. The turn was the {2-Hearts}

{2-Hearts}

. The player in the BB bet 2,200, and Cunningham called.

The river brought the {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

. The BB player checked, and Cunningham bet 4,500. His opponent called.

Cunningham showed {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

for the rivered flush. His opponent turned over {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{10-Clubs}

for tens full of deuces. Not too much out there that could beat that.

After having been up around 60,000, Cunningham now has about 45,000.
