Dresch Doubles Petronack, Can't Talk His Way Out of a Call
There was around 80,000 in the middle on a board reading 
and Jeff Petronack announced he was all in from under the gun. His opponent was Jeremy Dresch, who was in the cutoff and went into the tank for over a minute.
"I'm talking myself into a fold here," Dresch said. Twenty seconds later, he went against his better judgment and threw out a call.
Petronack turned over 
, putting them far enough out in front of him that they were right next to the river five to show that he had hit a full house on the final card of the hand. Dresch mucked and the dealer turned up his hand due to the all-in situation, displaying a cracked 
.
According to tablemate Bobby Cassioppi, Petronack had opened preflop and called a three-bet from Dresch. Both players checked the flop and Petronack fired out 20,000 on the turn. Dresch called before calling the shove again on the river to double up Petronack, who now finds himself with 326,000.
Cassioppi also added that he himself had doubled against Dresch the hand before. The double brought his stack up to 186,000, making him one of the largest stacks in the room with four tables left and just over 20 minutes of play remaining in the day.
