Anderson Sends Another to the Rail

Level 7 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

John Anderson was involved in a preflop all-in situation after he reshoved all in on his opponent. The decision was on Alex Pryor who thought for a while before folding.

Anderson had the {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds} and his opponent had the {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}.

The board would remain safe for the kings as it came {a-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{2-Spades}{7-Clubs}{3-Spades} and his opponent was eliminated from the tournament.

Lee Eliminated

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Peter Lee retold his elimination bad beat story to PokerNews.

As he explained it, he held {9-}{9-} and bet on the flop and the turn and was called both times. The board was all undercards.

It was actually on the turn that he moved all in and was called by {8-}{8-}. Lee was in good shape with the better overpair but the river was an eight and Lee was sent away in Flight B.
