Alex Epstein

On a {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}{9-Spades} flop Dylan Wilkerson checked to Alex Epstein who put out 75,000.

"Damn," said Wilkerson who had 55,000 behind. "I was going to check-jam."

"That is still an option," said Epstein.

Eventually Wilkerson folded and Epstein showed {6-Spades}{8-Clubs}.

"You know, when you flop that strong..." he said as he moved over a million chips.
