Verkerk Vaults

Jeffrey Dunbar raised to 1,400 from under the gun, and it folded around to Chris Verkerk on the button, who pushed all in with his remaining 5,850. The blinds got out of the way, and Dunbar called.

Dunbar showed {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades} and Verkerk {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}. The board ran out {K-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{J-Hearts}{2-Hearts}, and Verkerk's tens held up.

Verkerk is up to 15,300, while Dunbar has slipped to 24,000.
