Swanson Makes the Right Call

Level 3 : 75/150, 0 ante
Dave Swanson
Dave Swanson

David Swanson, who is probably better known as "All American Dave", has taken a seat in the Closer at the same table as Jason Wheeler. Swanson has already cashed twice this summer, both of them in the 30-minute levels format. He will be looking to lock in his third and better his personal record of $2,911 here at the WSOP.

With about 5,000 in the middle already, the board read {Q-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{3-Spades}{4-Hearts} and both Nicholas Steed (cutoff) and Swanson (button) had checked.

The {3-Clubs} on the river completed the board and Steed threw in a 5,000-value chip in as a bet. Swanson looked at Steed and the board and back at Steed. After a minute or so, Swanson called. Steed looked a bit disappointed and showed {a-Spades}{j-Spades}. Swanson flipped over {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} for two pair, kings and treys, to scoop the pot.
