Fosco and the Mighty Nine-Deuce

Level 23 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

The table folded around to the blinds, and Mike Fosco open-shoved for 188,000 with the mighty {9-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds}. In the big, Dylan Wilkerson figured {K-Hearts} {2-Hearts} was good enough to call with, and it was bad news for Fosco's dominated hand.

Bad news, that is, until the flop brought {10-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} {9-Spades} and a big lead for the at-risk player, and the turn {Q-Diamonds} and river {2-Clubs} locked up the double. Tens and nines get the job done for Fosco, and he's back to 388,000 now. Wilkerson has less than that after getting three-outed, and he's going to have to do some work now with 330,000 chips left.
