Cabrera Gets Value From Nguyen
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Christopher Nguyen raised to 12,000 in early position and David Cabrera three-bet to 37,000 on the button. Nguyen called and the flop came J♣10♦7♦.
Both players checked to the 5♣ turn, where Nguyen led out for 25,000. Cabrera called and the 7♥ fell on the river.
Nguyen slowed down and checked, and Cabrera bet 67,000. Nguyen used a few time banks until calling as Cabrera showed A♣10♣ for two pair to win the pot.
"You had eights or nines, right? I could not resist. If you shove I probably have to call," Cabrera told Nguyen as he took the pot.
"Now we're even. We're playing best-of-five," Cabrera added.
