Hits Keep Coming for Cantu

We just posted that Brandon Cantu continues to shove all in on every hand. For the fourth consecutive hand, Cantu shoved and again it was folded around. The hand immediately after, Cantu shoves in again and a single opponent took some time to mull over the decision.

"If you're trying to get a read on me, I've been shoving in every hand," Cantu said.

The opponent eventually called and turned over {Q-Clubs} {K-Hearts} to Cantu's {J-Spades} {K-Diamonds} . For a brief moment, Cantu appeared to be reversing his luck when the flop came {8-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} {9-Spades}, giving Cantu top pair. The turn brought the {10-Clubs} and Cantu was forced to rebuy again.

Immediately after, Cantu shoved all in yet again, but no one called. He seems to have slowed down for now, though there's only 20 minutes left in the rebuy period.
