Big hand for Peter Thorpe (not Thorne as I may have previously written - can"t read my own writing! )

Dealt AA at 600/1200 blinds he limps in. It folds round to big blind who min-raises to 2.4k. Peter calls.

Flop T 3 6. Opponent leads out for 4k.

Peter tanks for 20 seconds and re-raises to 9k.

His opponent shoves all in for 20k. Peter insta-calls. Turn A, River 3. Just to make sure.

Peter"s stack is now 95k+, and he is chip leader.
