Anderson Gets Closer
Level 28
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Bohuai Jiang opened to 700,000 with K♠9♥ on the button, and Benjamin Anderson called holding 7♦6♦ in the big blind.
Anderson checked the Q♠4♣8♠ flop, and Jiang continued for 500,000. Anderson then check-raised to 1,300,000, and Jiang slid in the call.
Anderson thought for a minute on the 7♥ turn before leading out for 1,900,000 with his pair. Jiang tossed his cards into the muck, and Anderson claimed the pot to close the gap.
