Guitarist Plays Winning Tune

Well, it would appear as though Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian is no slouch at the poker table, as he has increased his started stack by several hundred within the opening levels.

On a board of {9-Hearts}{5-Spades}{5-Clubs}{J-Spades}{6-Diamonds} and with 1,450 in the pot, Scott Ian raised his opponent's leading bet of 1,000 to 2,500 to take the pot down uncontested.
