Barnhart Strikes River
James Anderson opened his button to 50,000 only to have Sam Barnhart shove all in for 860,000. Anderson immediately made the call.
Barnhart:
Anderson:
With Barnhart trailing in chips and in hand strength, the sweat-tastic flop gave Barnhart a great chance of staying alive in the tournament.
"Not a bad flop!" stated Barnhart before the rolled off on the turn and Barnhart continued by saying, "throw an ace out there!"
And the dealer would deliver by dropping the cruel on the river to give Barnhart aces-up and send him soaring to over 1,700,000 as Anderson plummets down to just over ten big blinds.
