Cantu Triples

[user196676]

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 1,500 ante

After shipping most of his stack to Phil Hellmuth, Brandon Cantu pushed his last 14,000 into the middle. He was called by Nick Schulman in the small blind and Johnny Chan in the big blind. Schulman drew one while Chan and Cantu both took two.

Into a sidepot, Schulman bet 18,000 and Chan made the call. Schulman spread out {10-} {7-} {6-} {4-} {2-} causing Chan to send his cards into the muck. Schulman picked up the sidepot, but was unable to eliminate Cantu, who spread out {7-} {3-} {2-} and managed to pull {9-} and {4-} . Cantu tripled up but is still in the danger zone with 52,500.
