The Brandon Cantu Show: "I Want to Go Home"

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

The Brandon Cantu Show is back on and today's sequel to yesterdays show featuring Kevin Saul promises to bring some laughs and tears. Today's episode is titled "I Want to Go Home".

The show began with Cantu raising his hand to 1,700 preflop. Kevin Saul re-raised to 6,900. Cantu said "all in" and action was back on Saul. He went deep into the dank. He even brought out his reading glasses to count out Cantu's stack. Saul asked for a count.

Cantu: "Your not calling if you want an exact count. Stop wasting people's time!"

Cantu was not done there as he had more to say as Saul was tanking, "I want to go home just like everyone else. I want to go home, its the truth."

With that Saul pushed chips in the middle and the cards were flipped

Cantu: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Saul: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}

Cantu was well ahead and won when the board ran out {j-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}. Cantu smiled and told Saul, "I didn't want to go home that badly!"

Saul did not seem to pleased with Cantu and he shipped the chips which sent him in reverse to 45,000, while Cantu had a memorable showing and doubled to 68,000.

Stay tuned for more of the Brandon Cantu Show as the day moves forward!
