Cantu Doubles Again

Brandon Cantu
Brandon Cantu
Brandon Cantu has slipped down around 300,000 over the past 15 minutes or so, and we pick him up involved in what would become a big pot.

First in from the small blind, Cantu opened with a raise to 45,000. Next door, chip leader Michele Iacovone reraised to 125,000. Cantu moved in and Iacovone instantly called.

Showdown
Cantu: {A-Spades} {A-Hearts}
Iacovone: {K-Spades} {K-Clubs}

The board was safe for Cantu: {5-Spades} {Q-Spades} {2-Clubs} {8-Clubs} {9-Hearts}. He's notched his second big double up of the day, just pipping over 600,000 now.

Iacovone is still just fine with 1.2 million in chips.
