Dioquino is Winning The Battle of the Blinds

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

In the first of two blind versus blind battles between Michael Shelton (small blind) and Jess Dioquino (big blind), the action folded to Shelton, who moved all in. Dioquino called holding {a-Diamonds}{9-Spades} and was up against Shelton's {6-Hearts}{7-Clubs}. The board ran out {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{10-Hearts} and Dioquino doubled through.

On the very next orbit, the action again folded to Shelton. This time he chose to raise to 20,000 and Dioquino called. Shelton led for 16,000 on a flop of {3-Spades}{4-Hearts}{7-Clubs} and again, Dioquino called.

On the {5-Diamonds} turn, Shelton bet 34,000 and after some thought Dioquino moved all in, prompting Shelton to quickly fold.
