Check-Raise, Check-Fold
Level 27
: 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante
In a blind-versus-blind pot, Jesus Cabrera completed from the small and Matthew Waxman took a free flop from the big.
It came , and Cabrera check-raised from 36,000 to 80,000. Waxman called the additional 44,000, and Cabrera checked to him again on the turn. There was a pause as Waxman considered the possibility he'd be check-raised twice, but that didn't stop him from firing another bullet, 110,000 chips. Cabrera surrendered, and the two have drawn nearly even in chips:
Cabrera - 1.33 million
Waxman - 1.28 million
