"RealAndyBeal" the Real Deal
You probably recognize the name Andy Beal from the book, The Professor, the Banker, and the Suicide King by esteemed poker author Michael Craig. Unfortunately, the man who goes by the moniker "RealAndyBeal" is not the rich Texan who took on poker's best in what some have called the biggest game ever played; instead, it is high-stakes regular Niki Jedlicka, who has decided to take a break from the ring games for a shot at WCOOP glory.
In a recent hand, "faith8" opened for 500 in early position and was met with a three-bet to 1,234 by Jedlicka. Action folded back to faith8, who made the call. The 
flop saw faith8 check-call a bet of 1,632, leading to the 
turn. Once again faith8 check-called a bet, this time 3,669, and the 
was put out on the river. Jedlicka fired out 6,622 after his opponent checked, which faith8 called. Jedlicka revealed 
for top pair with top kicker, and it was good enough to collect the 26,839 pot.
