The Bass Goes Fishing

Jeff Lisandro raised to 300 from UTG+1, and Dee Tiller called from the button. Billy Baxter then raised to 1,700 from the big blind, and both Lisandro and Tiller called.

Baxter stood pat, Lisandro took one card, and Tiller drew two. Baxter checked, Lisandro bet 3,500, then Tiller raised to 7,000. Baxter folded -- a {9-} and an {8-} showing as he did -- then Lisandro called the raise with his remaining chips.

Tiller turned over {8-}{7-}{4-}{3-}{2-}. Lisandro showed his hand -- he'd made a nine -- and the dealer quickly mucked his cards as Lisandro passed an add-on chip the dealer's way.

"The ten-pound bass had to go deep into the water for that one!" said Tiller afterwards. When Vanessa Rousso asked what he meant, Tiller explained that was a reference to his online screen name and nickname -- "The Bass."

J.C. Tran immediately asked Tiller if he were a fisherman. Tiller said yes, and Tran noted he had recently taken up fishing. Meanwhile Lisandro and Rousso appeared to be discussing how Tiller had fished for that eight.

Tiller is way up to 21,000 now, plus he has all three of his add-on chips.
