Nice Read By Dye

Shane Dye might just have the right instincts for this crazy game of poker, as demonstrated in a recent pot.

We caught the action on the turn with the board reading {5-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{8-Hearts}. Dye led out for 3,000 and met resistance from one opponent who made the call in position.

The river was the {10-Clubs} and Dye checked to his opponent who quickly tossed out a single yellow 5,000 denomination chip sending Dye into the tank. He eventually committed to a call and his opponent revealed {Q-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} for just a busted straight draw. Despite the dangerous looking board, Dye tabled {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} for just ace-high which was good to collect a healthy pot. He's now up to 55,000 chips.
