Ankenman Looking for Another Mixed Title

Limit Hold'em:

Back in 2009, Jerrod Ankenman topped a field of 412 players to win this very event, good for $241,637. Ankenman is back in action and looking to capture the title once again, and he appeared to be off to a good start.

In a recent hand, Ankenman three-bet to 500 after the cutoff had raised. The small blind called, as did Brandon Cantu in the big, and the cutoff came along, making it four-way to the {Q-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop.

The cutoff bet again when action checked to him, which Ankenman and Cantu called. When the {6-Clubs} turned, it went check-check to Ankenman and he bet. Cantu quickly folded while the cutoff made the call and then checked the {3-Diamonds} river.

"I don't know what you've got," Ankenman admitted before checking behind and showing {Q-Spades}{10-Clubs}, which proved good against the cutoff's {J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}.

Meanwhile it appears both Scott Clements and Shawn Buchanan have been eliminated from the tournament.
