Goodwin Doing Good Job of Winning

[user46392]

I happened past EPT Barcelona runner-up Marc Goodwin's table where I discovered the following:

- Mr. Goodwin has 93,000 in chips.

- he acquired most of those when he knocked out Tom Dwan. Dwan raised from the button and Goodwin flat-called with pocket jacks, to see a {J-Hearts}

flop which they both checked. Goodwin checked the {3-Clubs}

turn as well, and then made it 5,000 when Dwan continuation-bet 2,000. They saw a {10-?}

river and Goodwin now bet out 10,000. Dwan pushed, Goodwin called, and Dwan turned over a most unfortunate {10-?}

for a smaller full house.

- Goodwin is still reading WSOP media coordinator Nolan Dalla's biography of Stu Ungar -- the same book he was reading all the way through the recent EPT Barcelona where he did so well. "Haven't you finished that yet?" I asked. "No, I'm afraid to," he replied. Furthermore, the book has now been dedicated and signed to Mr. Goodwin by the delighted author. Everyone is very happy. Except possibly Tom Dwan.
