Sexton Stands Firm

This Mike Sexton character knows his way around a poker table. We followed this hand beginning on fourth street, Owais Ahmed was the third player in the hand.

Sexton: (x-x) / {5-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {4-Clubs} {10-Hearts} / (x)
Ahmed: (x-x) / {3-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {4-Spades} {10-Clubs} / (x)
Opponent: (x-x) / {7-Spades} {2-Diamonds} {A-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} / (x)

On fourth, Sexton bet and was called in both places. It checked through on fifth, and Mr. Opponent bet sixth and seventh streets. Ahmed folded on sixth, but Sexton would not fold. On the river, he spent a long while considering the last bet before making the call.

Sexton: {A-Spades} {K-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} / {5-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {4-Clubs} {10-Hearts}
Opponent: {9-Spades} {3-Spades} {3-Hearts} / {7-Spades} {2-Diamonds} {A-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}

"Nice call, sir," the opponent acknowledged. His lowly pair of threes were no good, and Sexton's not-quite-as-lowly fives took the whole pot.
