Welcome to America!

Livello 22 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

On a heads-up flop of 3♠7♥A♦, Bradley Anderson checked to Ka Kwan Lau who bet 165,000 but then Anderson check-raised him to 400,000.

After some thought, Lau made the call and they went to the turn 9♠, where both players decided to check.

On the river Q♣, Anderson then led out for 700,000 and Lau went deep into the tank. After three and a half minutes, Lau finally tossed in his cards to award the pot to Anderson.

"Phewwwww! You really made me sweat on that one!" Anderson breathed a sigh of relief as he tabled K♥J♣10♠4♠ for just king-high."

"Welcome to America!" tablemate Ben Lamb joked as Anderson raked in his new chips.
