Spears Extinguishes Cavanaugh
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Richard Spears raised to 1,600 from early position before Dustin Cavanaugh chose to raise to 8,500 from the cutoff. Spears responded by pushing all-in. Cavanaugh went into the tank as he faced an all-in decision for his tournament life. After a moment of thinking, he called to put himself at risk for 31,000.
Dustin Cavanaugh: A♠J♣
Richard Spears: 10♦10♣
The 5♥8♥6♠ flop did not help Cavanaugh. The 10♥ sealed the deal as the meaningless 5♠ hit the river to award the pot to Spears as Cavanaugh was eliminated.
