Cabrera Doubles Through Sontheimer

Level 5 : 250/500, 75 ante

The second bullet had been running very well for Steffen Sontheimer thus far, but he just took a big hit after trying to push Sergio Cabrera out of a big pot.

Picking up the action on the {J-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{2-Spades} flop with 9,500 in the middle, Cabrera checked and Sontheimer bet 3,300 from one seat over. Cabrera called and did so again for 13,400 on the {6-Hearts} turn.

The Spaniard then checked the {6-Clubs} river and Sontheimer simply pushed forward a stack that amounted to 75,000. This had Cabrera covered by far, and the clock ran down to three seconds before the Spaniard called. Sontheimer announced eight-high and flipped over {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}, Cabrera doubled for 31,750 with {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs}.
