Sanders Sends Cho to the Rail

Level 9 : 400/800, 800 ante

Scott Sanders opened to 1,600 under the gun, John Cho called on Sanders' direct left, and Casey McCarrel called in the big blind.

Action checked to Sanders on the {4-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} flop, and the defending WSOPC Harveys Lake Tahoe champion bet 2,500. Cho called, and McCarrel folded.

The turn came {5-Hearts}, Sanders bet 4,500 and Cho called.

The river came {a-Spades}, and Sanders went all in, having Cho well covered. Cho, who had about 9,000 chips remaining, went deep into the tank, talking out lous trying to figure out his next move.

Cho eventually called, but saw the bad news when Sanders turned over {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for the heart flush. Cho turned over his {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts} and headed for the exit.
