Cunningham Accumulating Chips

Nível 11 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

A player under-the-gun opened to 4,500 followed by Nicholas Cunningham calling in middle position and the big blind calling as well.

On a flop of 8♣A♣K♥, the under-the-gun player continued with a bet of 5,500. Nicholas Cunningham made the call and the big blind folded, leading to a 10♠ turn.

The under-the-gun player opted for a check that was met with a bet of 12,000 from Cunningham. The under-the-gun player called to see a board pairing A♠ on the river to which he quickly checked again.

Cunningham responded by quickly sliding enough chips forward to put his opponent all in. The under-the-gun player didn't waste much time before tossing his cards toward the muck and conceding the pot to Cunningham.
