Himpele Wisely Checks Back

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

With approximately 35,000 in the pot on a board of J♠Q♥A♥10♠6♥, Rudy Cervantes checked from the small blind.

Donald Himpele spent a long time in the tank from the hijack before eventually deciding to check back with around 25,000 behind.

It proved to be the correct decision, as Cervantes tabled K♠7♠ for Broadway to take down the pot.
