Dietrich Fast claimed the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown Super High Roller title just a few days ago and parlayed his big score into an entry in today’s High Roller. He’s been active in a few pots early, most notable raising to 1,000 from the cutoff only to see Stephen Chidwick three-bet to 3,000 from the button.

The flop was 9c9h8h and Fast checked. Chidwick bet 2,300. Fast called.

The turn fell the 4s. Fast checked again. Chidwick bet 7,000. Fast came along for one more and the dealer finished the board with the Qh. Both players quickly checked and Fast’s pocket sixes were second best to Chidwick’s pocket jacks. Despite surrendering the pot, Fast owned just over starting stack.

Dietrich Fast – 110,000
