Cabrera Doubles Back to the Lead

Level 30 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Jesus Cabrera raised to 140,000, and Matthew Waxman called to head off to the {6-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} flop. And with it came the action. Waxman led out with 200,000, and Cabrera moved all in for 1.845 million total. Waxman spent a good long while soaking in the tank, but he eventually made the call with another chance to earn that elusive final knockout. The news was not what Waxman had hoped for:

Showdown
Cabrera: {K-Clubs} {6-Clubs}
Waxman: {5-Diamonds} {5-Hearts}

Waxman could hardly believe that Cabrera had shoved with a six, but it was in the lead as the cards laid. "Wow, I'm ahead!" Cabrera couldn't contain his own surprise as he spun away from the table. He looked back for another glance and added, "but he's open-ended..." An astute observation.

Waxman had ten outs twice, but he could not find them. The turn {A-Spades} and river {J-Clubs} have once again failed to allow him to close this thing out, and he's once again at a slight chip disadvantage.

Cabrera - 3.85 million
Waxman - 3.205 million
