Dechant Pushes His Opponent Off

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

There was a raise to 2,500 from early position and Dieter Dechant called from the small blind. The flop fell {j-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} and Dechant led out for 4,000. His opponent quickly raised to 8,000 and Dechant called just as fast.

The turn brought the {q-Clubs} and Dechant checked to his opponent who bet 4,500. Dechant pushed in a raise to 20,000 and that slowed the action down a bit. His opponent thought for over a minute as the two players exchanged some words and he eventually mucked hand. Dechant scooped the pot and climbed to over 60,000 chips.
