Cantu Takes from Zewin
Brandon Cantu had the bring-in and then called a completion from Don Zewin, who you may recall finished ninth in this very event back in 2009. When he took the lead on the turn, Cantu bet and it was Zewin's turn to call. Cantu kept the lead for the remainder of the hand and bet every street. Zewin came along and after he called seventh, Cantu said, "Nine."
"Nine what?" the soft-spoken Zewin asked. Cantu showed a 9-8 and it was good enough.
