Dickstein Cracks Aces
Mark Dickstein opened to 1,300 from middle position and action folded around to the small blind who three-bet to 3,500. The big blind then cold four-bet to 12,500 and Dickstein responded by moving all in. The small blind quickly folded while the big blind snapped with the covering stack to put Dickstein at risk.
Mark Dickstein: 
Big Blind Player: 
Dickstein was in rough shape, though it should be noted that earlier in the hand the 
dealt to John Auville was exposed. That fact became of particular importance after the flop came 
to vault Dickstein into a commanding lead. The 
turn left the big blind player hoping to hit either a ten or the single remaining ace to eliminate Dickstein but the comeback was not to be as the 
completed the board to improve Dickstein to a full house.
