Waxman Doubles Through Philachack

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Andy Philachack opened to 2,700 and a short-stacked Matt Waxman moved all in for 19,100 total. Philachack decided to make the call with {K-Hearts}{Q-Spades} and was slightly behind Waxman's {A-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}.

The flop came {A-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{5-Spades} to give Waxman a huge lead. The {Q-Diamonds} on the turn gave Philachack some outs to deliver the knockout blow to Waxman but the {9-Diamonds} river would change nothing other than the chips changing hands.
