The Whole Nine

Melanie Weisner on Day 2
Melanie Weisner on Day 2

There was one table playing a hand long into the break, and we had eyes on the action. Melanie Weisner opened the pot to 5,100 under the gun, and she found calls in two places. One of those callers was big blind Anders Andersen, and he led with the same 5,100 on the {K-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} flop. Weisner flatted.

They were heads up to the {A-Hearts} turn, and now Andersen slowed back down. When it checked to Weisner, she took her cue to bet 13,500. It was several minutes before the call came, and by now, most of the room was empty.

The river came the {2-Clubs}, and Andersen checked again. Weisner had about 35,000 chips left in front of her, and she bet 25,100 of them. Andersen needed more time in the tank, another four or five minutes at least. He did eventually fold, though, and Weisner showed {9-Spades} {9-Diamonds} as she hustled off to break.

She's closing back in on the century mark in chips.
