Anderson Scoops but Moncek Still a Big Stack
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Michael Moncek made it 4,000 from the button and was called by both blinds.
The flop fell 8♥4♦Q♣ and a bet of 5,000 received two calls. A turn of Q♠ saw John Anderson all in from the small blind and heads up against Moncek.
John Anderson: A♦Q♦6♥4♥2♥
Michael Moncek: A♠9♦7♦6♣5♥
The river came the 5♦ and Anderson took the pot — but it only made a small dent in Moncek's chip stack.
Meanwhile, on a nearby table, Erik Seidel's tournament came to an end when his A♦Qx9♣5♣4♣ went up against A♣J♠J♦3♠2♦ and the board ran out J♣8♥8♦10♦A♥
