Small Ball

Manny Minaya just did something we haven't seen much of at all in this tournament: he limped into a pot preflop. All other players folded to Carman Cavella in the big blind, who checked. Both players checked a {4-Clubs} {4-Spades} {5-Clubs} flop. Cavella took a stab on the turn {K-Diamonds} with a bet of 26,000 but Minaya stayed with him. On the river {k-Hearts}, Cavella surrendered. He checked, then folded to a bet of 65,000 from Minaya.
