Cabrera Backs Into a Small Straight
Level 28
: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Matthew Waxman raised to 90,000 from the button, and Jesus Cabrera called from the big blind. They were heads up, and they checked the action through the turn on the board. When the river put an open-ended straight draw on board, Cabrera flicked out a small bet of 60,000 which Waxman paid off.
Cabrera tabled for the baby end of the straight, and it was good enough to drag the pot and move him up to 2.35 million. Waxman takes a little hit, but he's still got about 4.09 million in front of him.
