Sanders Hits River To Chip Up

Level 2 : 200/300, 300 ante

Scott Sanders raised it up from early position to 700 and the player to his left called from middle position. The flop came {j-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{6-Spades} and Sanders fired a continuation-bet of 1,200. His opponent put in 2,000 and announced a raise. After both Sanders and the dealer confirmed what he said, he was forced to put in a minimum raise of 2,400, which Sanders matched.

The turn came {4-Spades} and Sanders checked. His opponent bet 3,000 and Sanders made the call. The river fell {a-Spades} and both players checked.

Upon checking behind, Sanders' opponent turned over {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds} for a pair of jacks. Sanders tabled {a-Clubs}{5-Clubs}, having filled up on one of his twelve pair or flush outs in order to make the best hand and take down the pot.
