Borge Dypvik Surges Late

Moments ago, young Norwegian Borge Dypvik took down another healthy pot and climbed closer to the 300,000 mark. Borge traded pre-flop raises with his heads-up opponent, eventually getting it all in with A-K; his opponent (the all-in player) entered the showdown with a pocket pair of sevens.

One by one, the dealer exposed the community cards, and at the turn, the board read: 8-4-10-5. Just before the river was dealt, Dypvik quietly called out, "Ace!" and sure enough, the {A-Clubs} was the last card to fall.

With the win, Dypvik stacked up just over 280,000 in chips and looks in great shape to end the evening near the top of the leaderboard.
