Nicely Done

Before the flop, the player from the cutoff raised to 2,300 and Allen Cunningham reraised to 7,500 from the button. His opponent called and the flop came {8-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} {4-Hearts}; when the cutoff checked, Cunningham bet 8,000. The other player called, and when the {8-Spades} turned he checked again. This time Cunningham bet 9,000 and, this time, his opponent raised to 21,000. Cunningham thought it over a bit and then decided to move in for his last 27,100. It was only 6,100 for his opponent to call, but he said, "I can't beat anything. Good read," before mucking his cards. The crowd gathered along the rail applauded as Allen raked a pot that pushed his stack up to 82,000.
