Waxman Dripping With Chips Again
Level 24
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Matthew Waxman made it 26,000 to play from the cutoff seat, and Mark Sykes made the call from the big blind. Heads up, the two of them took a flop of , and Sykes check-called a 42,000-chip bet from Waxman. On the turn, Waxman fired another 88,000 at the pot, and Sykes check-called once again.
That led them to the river, and Waxman took his cue to move all in following the third Sykes check. It had to be at least seven minutes later that the clock was called on Sykes and he reluctantly released his hand into the muck to see his stack slip to about 345,000.
Waxman appears to be up around 840,000 with that nice little pot.
