Klausen Dusts Off Chips

Steven Bradbury

From early position, the aggressive Jonas Klausen opened the pot again, raising to 80,000. Action came all the way around to the big blind where Steven Bradbury made the call to see the flop.

It showed up {K-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {5-Spades}, and Bradbury took the betting lead. He pushed 125,000 chips into the pot, and Klausen wasted little time calling.

The turn card was the {K-Spades}. Bradbury wasn't letting up; he put 150,000 more chips into the pot. Klausen took just a half of a beat longer to think this time, but he called once again.

The last card off was the {9-Diamonds}. Without delay, Bradbury made his move, shoving all in for 555,000. Klausen now went deep into the tank. As Bradbury peered over his glasses at his foe across the table, Klausen cut out the calling chips and counted down his remaining stack. He held the matching 555,000 chips in his hand and glanced up to see Bradbury's unceasing gaze. Finally, he plunked the call into the pot.

Bradbury could hardly wait to show {K-Hearts} {9-Hearts}, rivering the absolute nuts. Unable to show anything better than that, Klausen sent his cards into the muck. It's a good thing he could survive a big hit like this, because Bradbury has just taken more than 800,000 of his chips.

Klausen - 2,300,000
Bradbury - 1,750,000
