Cantu Can't Bully His Opponent

A player opened with a raise to 500 from middle position and Brandon Cantu called on the button. The big blind also called. The three players took a flop of {Q-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} {6-Spades}. After the big blind checked, the preflop raiser fired a continuation bet of 1,600. Cantu jacked the action up with a raise to 4,525. The big blind silently folded and then the player took some time to go over his decision.

The result was an all-in reraise from Cantu's opponent to make it approximately 12,000 total. Cantu looked disgusted as he checked his hand once more before flinging it towards the muck pile. Cantu dropped to 24,500.
