Cada's Trap

Joe Cada misses a bit of value, but is still well above the average stack

Joe Cada opened to 700 from under the gun, and one opponent in middle position came along for the ride. The dealer spread {6-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{4-Hearts}, and Cada led for 1,000. His opponent called.

The turn was the {8-Diamonds}, and Cada slowed down, checking to his opponent, who tossed out two yellow T1,000 chips. Cada called.

The {6-Diamonds} fell on the river, and Cada checked again. His opponent quickly checked behind, and Cada sighed before opening up {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for trip sixes. To add insult to injury, his opponent showed {a-Spades}{q-Clubs} for top-top.

"I should have bet there," Cada rued.
