Hand #53 - Moon Snaps Off Cada

Antoine Saout has the button. Action once again folds to Joe Cada. This time he makes it 1.0 million straight, from the cutoff seat. Big blind and chip leader Darvin Moon is the only caller.

Moon checks the {4-Clubs} {8-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} flop to Cada. Cada checks it right back, taking the two players to the {A-Diamonds} turn. Moon checks a second time, but not Cada. He bets 1.4 million. Moon is undeterred by the bet. He calls.

The river comes {4-Spades}. That's a seeming blank, but it doesn't stop Moon from leading into Cada for 2.5 million. Cada is furiously riffling chips, mouth wide open as he considers his action. Moon's got his right hand over his mouth. Cada announces a raise to 5.5 million. Moon quickly calls and turns over {A-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} for two pair, aces and fours. We never saw Cada's hand.

Moon is back up to roughly his starting stack, 59.5 million. Cada slips to 6.75 million.
