The Waxman Miracle

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 500 ante
Matt Waxman
Matt Waxman

Faraz Jaka raised preflop to 6,500 and Matt Waxman, two seats over, moved all in for 44,900. The action folded to Ankush Mandavia and from the small blind he moved all in for about 30,000 more.

Dan Smith was next to act in the big blind and he tanked for a bit before moving all in as well. Jaka quickly folded and the showdown went as following.

Smith: {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}
Mandavia: {A-Spades}{K-Spades}
Waxman: {A-Hearts}{6-Hearts}

The flop brought out {10-Spades}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades} and Mandavia cheered, "Spades!"

On the turn the {2-Hearts} popped up and Jaka said that Waxman was gonna get there on the river. The river did indeed bring the {3-Hearts} and Waxman leaned back in his chair in amazement.

"Don't report that please," Waxman jokingly said as he raked in a big triple up. Smith was left with a very small stack while Mandavia maintained his stack.
