James Dempsey

James Dempsey saw a flop of {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}{j-Spades} and his opponent checked it to him.

A bet of 600 from Dempsey got a call and the turn card was the {6-Hearts}. Another check prompted the same 600 bet from Dempsey and a call once more.

They both checked the {7-Clubs} river and, when his opponent said “ace high,” Dempsey showed {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds} to win the pot.
