Andersen's Day Comes to an End

Mads Andersen of Copenhagen, Denmark, who is a recognizable name on the European circuit, was all in preflop with {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} and was in bad shape against the {9-Spades}{9-Clubs} of Tony Lay.

We'd like to say that Andersen got a good sweat out of it, but that wasn't the case as the board ran out a lackluster {A-Clubs}{8-Spades}{10-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{10-Spades}. Both Andersen and Lay rose and walked around the table to shake hands, and then the former headed to the payout desk.
