DiZenzo Holds

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Dan DiZenzo put in a reraise to 1,800 from the big blind and got a couple of callers. The flop came {5-Spades}{k-Hearts}{9-Spades}, prompting DiZenzo to continue for 2,500. One player folded, but another in the cutoff wasted no time before jamming all in for about 19,000. DiZenzo thought briefly and then put in a call for most of his stack.

DiZenzo: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Opponent: {k-Spades}{7-Spades}

Both players had top pair, but DiZenzo was ahead for the moment with his king kicker. He didn't want to see a spade, and the {k-Diamonds} turn wasn't great for him as it brought some chopping outs if the board paired again. The {q-Hearts} was a blank on the river, and DiZenzo collected his opponent's stack.
