Lederer Takes a Pot

A player in late position opened the pot for a 300 chip raise. Howard Lederer reraised from the cut off to 1,000. Both blinds called the three bet cold, as well as the original raiser.

The flop came {9-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds}. After a check from the small blind, the big blind bet 2,200. The original raiser folded, Lederer called, and the small blind got out of the way.

Heads up to the turn, Lederer and his opponent saw the {A-Clubs} hit. The big blind checked and "The Professor" bet 3,500.

Lederer's opponent mucked his hand and Howard raked in the pot as an ESPN camera crew sweated him close by.
