Kanter Can Do

We walked up to Aaron Kanter's table as he was involved in a pot against one opponent. The board showed {7-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {A-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds}. Kanter bet 1,600 from middle position. His opponent shoved all in for 5,100 from the button.

Kanter stood up and asked for a count. He tanked for about a minute, then started laughing as he made what he said was a crying call. It turned out to be a great call. His {Q-Clubs} {8-Clubs} was well ahead of his opponent's {A-Spades} {10-Spades}. The river was the {6-Spades}, allowing Kanter to drag the pot and eliminate his opponent.

Kanter now has about 16,000.
