WPT’s Raw Deal host and professional poker player Tony Dunst‘s latest Tribune Media syndicated column takes a look at one of his own hands from his deep run at WPT Five Diamond World Poker Classic. The hand occurred on Day 4 with only 18 players left and pitted Dunst against two of the best players left in the field, Soi Nguyen and Vanessa Selbst, both of whom would go on to reach the final table of that event. From the article:

Late in Day Four, we were down to 18 players and redrawn to the final two tables. On my left was chip leader and WSOP main event final table-ist Soi Nguyen, sitting on more than $3 million in chips. On my right was one of the toughest players remaining, Vanessa Selbst, who had about $900,000. I was also holding $900,000, my biggest stack up to that point. A couple orbits into play, the three of us became involved in a major pot.

To see the outcome of the hand and read Tony’s analysis of how he played it, check out the full article at the Chicago Tribune site. Dunst went on to finish 18th for $31,845 at the event.
