Waxman Loses A Few Early

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

When we got to the table, Matt Waxman and an opponent took a flop of {10-Clubs}{4-Spades}{j-Clubs}. Waxman check called an opponents bet of 750. When the {5-Spades} hit the turn, Waxman checked, and his oppoent bet 2,350, which was most his stack. Waxman put him all in for 400 more, and his opponent called.

Waxman: {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Opponent: {q-Spades}{2-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

Waxman had top two, and his opponent had an over pair and an open ended straight draw. The {a-Clubs} on the river completed that straight, and Waxman lost the pot, dropping him to a still very healthy 26,100.
