John Dwyer Doubles Through Jesper Hougaard

With the action folded to John Dwyer in the small blind, he made a min-raise to 12,000. Jesper Hougaard reraised to 29,000, and Dwyer moved all in, a move that made Hougaard scrunch up his face and remove his headphones. Hougaard made the call and turned up {A-Hearts} {5-Hearts} to Dwyer's {8-Spades} {8-Hearts}.

The {9-Spades} {8-Clubs} {3-Hearts} flop made Dwyer a set and he turned a full house with the {3-Clubs} on the turn. The river fell a meaningless {K-Diamonds} and Dwyer doubled up to 180,000. Hougaard was still in the chip lead with 340,000.
