Dirksen Holds the Mustard

Michael Cooper raised to 40,000 from the cutoff, and it folded to Dustin Dirksen who reraised to 85,000 from the big blind. Cooper called, and the pair checked down the {Q-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{A-Diamonds} flop, the {4-Diamonds} turn, and the {3-Diamonds} river.

Cooper tabled {K-Spades}{5-Spades} for kings, and Dirksen grimaced as he mucked. "You made it too cheap for me," said Cooper afterwards, and Dirksen agreed. "Put more mustard on it, and I probably kick it away."

Cooper has 430,000 now, while Dirksen has 675,000.
