Steve Anderson

Steve Anderson raised to 2,800 from the hijack position and the two players to his left became very curious. They both stared hard at Anderson's remaining 15,000 short stack to get a count. The player in the cutoff made the call while the button and blinds found a fold.

Flop: {9-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

Anderson didn't hesitate on the flop as he tossed one blue chip forward signifying a bet of 5,000. Anderson's opponent called and the turn was shown.

Turn: {k-Diamonds}

Continuing his story, Anderson went all in for his last 10,000. Anderson's opponent showed obvious frustration as the threw his cards face up into the muck.

Opponent: {a-Spades}{4-Spades}

Anderson threw his cards away and pulled in his new chips.

The board read {7-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{8-Spades}{8-Clubs} when Kevin Nguyen found himself heads up and facing a bet of 7,500.

Nguyen thought about what he wished to do for a moment before announcing a raise to 23,000. Nguyen's opponent was not pleased with the raise and verbally went over what Nguyen could have.

"Seven Eight? Do you have seven-eight here?" he said before calling chips were tossed in.

Opponent: {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Kevin Nguyen: {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}

Nguyen didn't have the feared seven-eight but Nguyen's opponent was correct to fear the full house.
