Rollercoaster Ride for Dyment
Ilya Dyment (button) and John McGuinness (sb) got it all-in pre-flop and Dyment's 
was slightly ahead of McGuinness' 
. The runout was clean until the river, when a king landed to give McGuinness a pair and the double up. (Jon Diolosa was in the big blind and commented that he folded pocket jacks on that hand.)
Dyment was left with only 65,000, which went in on the next hand. John Diolosa called from the small blind, then Brittney Barnes 3-bet from the big blind, successfully isolating. Her 
was ahead of Dyment's 
, but another king on the river shipped the triple to Dyment, bringing his stack up to 380,000.
Then Dyment was under-the-gun and all-in for 380,000, getting called by Diolosa (button) and Frank Marasco (bb). They checked down the board of 
and Diolosa tabled pocket treys. Marasco had 
but no diamond. Dyment produced the 
to take the pot with a flush and just like that, he's back up to 1.32 million.
