Josh Brikis Refuses to Lay Down and is Mounting a Momentous Comeback Attempt
Josh Brikis Refuses to Lay Down and is Mounting a Momentous Comeback Attempt

On the first hand back from break, Josh Brikis just made this heads-up match a real game.

Brikis woke up with {K-Spades}{k-Hearts} when Affleck went in for the kill, and although Affleck had brought a real hand to bear with his {Q-}{q-}, the percentages were firmly in Brikis' favor as the dealer burned and turned.

The final board rolled out {4-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and Brikis' cowboys crushed Affleck's ladies. Affleck still holds a sizable lead, but after having Brikis down to just a few big blinds only mere minutes before, the pressure has to be building just a bit.
