Tom Dwan is warily circling today, looking for spots where he can pick off chips from his opponents. He must have thought he was in a great spot against Thomas Hunt. At sixth street, "durrrr" was showing two open kings. He bet and Hunt, with two open fives, raised, leaving himself 500 chips behind. Dwan re-raised and Hunt called, getting all the chips in. It looked to be a chop, as Dwan had kings and queens for high and Hunt had a pair of fives and a made low. But Hunt also had a freeroll to a straight, a card which came in when Hunt drew the river. Dwan didn't fill up, and as a result Hunt dragged the whole pot.
Dwan still has 40,000. Hunt doubled up to 30,000.
