Dirk Digs His Heels In

Dirk Hetzer
Dirk Hetzer
Dirk Hetzer, who had seen his stack dwindle to just a few thousand, eventually made his move with {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}, only to see his patience rewarded as big blind Arvydas Kondratas looked him up with {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}.

Drama as the {9-Spades}{7-Spades}{2-Spades} flop was pursued by a {J-Spades} turn, but Hetzer's bacon was saved by the {10-Diamonds} river. He didn't notice initially, a dejected nod of disapproval soon followed by a whistle of relief as the realization set in.
