DJ Lyons Doubles Up To Average Stack

Jun 24, '16

A player in the cutoff position raised, and DJ Lyons shoved all in from the button with the AK, and a player in the small blind re-shoved.

The original raiser thought about it briefly before folding pocket fours face-up.

Lyons was up against 88, and needed to come out on the right side of a race to stay alive late on Day 1A.

Fortunately for him, the flop fell KK10, giving him trips. The 10 on the turn had his opponent drawing dead on the river.

Lyons was up to around 50,000, which was about average in the room.

DJ Lyons Puts a Move on Andrew Brinkley

Aug 22, '15

Action folded to Andrew Brinkley in the cutoff, who raised to 2,000. DJ Lyons moves all in for about 13,000 on the button and action folds back around to Brinkley.

“I was just trying to take the blinds,” said Brinkley as he tosses his cards into the muck. “It would have worked too if it wasn’t for your ace-seven or whatever.”

Lyons flipped over J6 and takes the pot while Brinkley smiles and groans at Lyons’ hole cards.

DJ Lyons – 16,600
