Former Champ Jerry Anderson Wins March Online Tourney

IMG_5819-e3Jerry Anderson, previous national qualifier in the Fall Spectacular promotion from the St. Cloud, MN area has found his winning ways again.  Jerry had been on a good run of cards and decided to give the March online championship a shot.  This was the first time he played on the new online software and what a great time to start!  Jerry said "I played pretty tight for the first two thirds of the tournament but when I did hit, I hammered the pot." Late in the tournament he used his stack to make people make uncomfortable decisions. Once at the final table Jerry noted, "I was probably as aggressive as I have ever been in a tournament."  Jerry was catching some good cards and putting on unrelenting pressure.  If someone came over the top of him he would fold, but the very next hand he would pushing again.  Jerry is also quoted with, "As with winning any tournament, I played good positional poker, made some good plays, but also had luck on my side more than once."

It's worth noting that this is the 6th promotion in a row that a representative from the Ultimate Sports bar in Waite Park (a suburb of St. Cloud) will compete in the National Championship in Las Vegas.
