Cherish These Chips

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

Cherish Andrews opened from under the gun to 1,350 before the player on the button made it 4,200. The blinds folded and Andrews called.

The flop came {4-Clubs}{j-Spades}{6-Clubs} and Andrews checked to the player in position and he bet 4,000. Andrews thought for a bit and decided to call.

The turn was the {q-Hearts} and this time Andrews led out for 8,200. Her opponent went deep into the tank. At one point he asked Andrews how much she had, to which she responded, "about 13k more". He counted out the chips in his stack that represented the rest of her chips and found that he would have about 12,000 more. After another minute or two he finally let his hand go.

With the pot, Andrews has now chipped up to 48,000.
