Dhar Wins Battle with Anderson
A player limped in early position and Calvin Anderson raised to 3,000 in the cutoff. Rajendara Dhar called in the small blind as did the limper.
On the A♣K♦4♦ flop, the action checked to Anderson who continued for 6,000. Dhar put in a check-raised to 22,000 and that was enough to drag the pot.
The following hand, Anderson opened to 2,000 in the hijack, and Dhar three-bet to 7,200 on the button. The action folded back around to Anderson and he made the call.
The dealer fanned a flop of J♥10♣8♥ and Anderson check-raised the 10,000 bet to 23,500. Dhar reraised it all and Anderson snap-called his stack of about 65,000.
Calvin Anderson: Q♣9♥5♥2♣
Rajendara Dhar: A♥Q♥10♦9♣
Both players flopped the straight but the K♣ turn improved Dhar to a larger straight and the Q♠ river sealed the fate of Anderson as he hit the rail.
