Anderson Plays a Funky One

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Calvin Anderson raised from the button to 4,300 and the gentleman in the big blind opted to defend. The flop came down {8-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and Anderson's continuation bet of 4,500 was check-called.

On the turn the {4-Diamonds} hit and the big blind checked again. Anderson bet 8,000 this time around, only to get check-raised up to 30,000.

Anderson tanked for quite a bit, but ultimately he called with about 30,000 left behind.

The river was the {4-Hearts} and quickly the big blind checked.

Anderson couldn't keep a straight face, and smiled, before betting the remainder of his grey chips, leaving himself with about 2,000.

Anderson's opponent showed {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} and threw them into the muck, as he said, "It didn't come."

"I didn't think you would call," Anderson's opponent said with a smile, and some of the other players at the table voiced the same sentiment.

The World Series of Poker bracelet winner laughed, as his opponent continued by saying, "That was the first time I lost with big slick this tournament."

Anderson raked in a big pot and sits on 105,000 while his opponent was left with around 90,000 chips.
