Anders Berg Busts a Player

Anders Berg
Anders Berg
A player moves all in for just under 4,000 on the cutoff and Anders Berg is laying in wait in the big blind with {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}. The pusher has {K-Clubs}{10-Spades}. The {9-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{J-Spades} flop brings a couple of more outs, but the {10-Diamonds} turn has Anders saying, "Give him his his king." The river is the {9-Hearts} and Anders wins a nice pot, eliminating a player in the process.

Stealing Casey?

Michal Wisniewski

Casey Kastle raises it up to 1,050 in mid position and Polish popstar Michal Wisniewski moves all in for just 2,725 from the big blind. After doing the math, Casey decides he is priced in to call and shows the massive {3-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}. Michal has {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs} and the board brings no surprises to double up the red-haired celebrity.

What's in a Name?

We here at PokerNews always enjoy the occasional hard-to-believe, yet real life poker player name; see Runar Runarsson, Rep Porter and Joe Serock.

The latest and greatest in poker names: "A. Fyshe," aka Adam Fyshe of Canada.

Table Talk

Woody Deck in reference to a friend on the rail: "I'm teaching him how to play..."

Woody's friend: "...and I'm teaching him how to talk to women. They're both not working out."

Cooler Alert!

Two players get it all in on the river of a {4-Spades}{2-Spades}{K-Spades}{J-Clubs}{J-Hearts} board. The player who moved all in was pretty confident when he instantly flipped {K-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} but he was behind his opponent's {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} and left with just a few chips after a cooler of a hand.
