Waxman Grants a Double

[user66118]

Level 17 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Phong Ly opened to 7,500 from the hijack seat, and Matt Waxman three-bet to 18,500 right next door. One seat over from that reraise came a four-bet shove for 57,700 from Curtis Simpson. Ly quickly folded, but Waxman toyed with the thought of being priced in before making the reluctant call.

Showdown
Waxman: {A-Clubs} {2-Spades}
Simpson: {K-Clubs} {K-Hearts}

Waxman picked up a wheel draw on the turn, but the {7-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {5-Clubs} {4-Spades} {7-Spades} board was ultimately safe for Simpson's overpair. He's earned himself a big double to about 125,000, knocking Waxman down to 140,000 in the process.
