Tsang, King of the Limpers
Level 23
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
After Dennis Weiss limped under the gun, three more players followed suit, including Anson Tsang in the cutoff. The big blind, Isaac Haxton, checked his option, and five players saw a flop.
When the blinds checked on the 9♦A♣5♥ flop, Weiss put out a bet of 210,000. Only Tsang and Haxton called, trimming the field by two, and the three remaining players saw a turn.
Haxton checked once again on the A♥ turn, and this time, so did Weiss. Tsang saw a green light to bet and slid out 400,000. Haxton folded, but Weiss stuck around to see a river.
The river 6♥ didn't deter Tsang. When Weiss checked to him, Tsang pushed out a bet of 725,000. After a moment's thought, Weiss said, "Nice hand" and folded, conceding the pot to Tsang.
