Dirksen Survives on the River
Level 24
: 25,000/50,000, 0 ante
No-Limit Hold'em
Dustin Dirksen shoved his last 85,000 from middle position and Meikle Partin called in the small blind.
Dustin Dirksen: 
Meikle Partin: 
Dirksen was dominated and fell further beyond when the 
flop gave Partin a pair of jacks.
Dirksen was already standing up with his backpack on as the 
came on the turn. "Three ball," he called for and got his wish as the 
on the river completed his straight.
"I'm not stopping until I get 17,000,000," he yelled as he sat back down.
The next hand, Dirksen was all in again with 
against Bruno Fitoussi's 
and doubled up once more as the board ran out 
.
