Dykes Takes A Big One

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Peter Dykes
Peter Dykes

The under-the-gun player bet 2,500 and was raised by Peter Dykes in the cutoff for 8,000. The under-the-gun player called.

The {10-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop allowed Dykes to continue for 8,000 and was called by his opponent. The {a-Clubs} rolled over on the turn and Dykes fired the third barrel for 18,000. Once again his foe called.

The river brought the {2-Spades} and Dykes moved all in for 52,300. The under-the-gun player wasn't happy and was unsure what to do. He tried some speech play but Dykes sat resolutely not moving a muscle.

His opponent asked, "If I fold will you show one?" Dykes remained unmoved and the under-the-gun player folded.

The under-the-gun player kept badgering Dykes after the pot was awarded to him but Dykes remained silent until he confided to a PokerNews live reporter that he had pocket aces.
