Cada Crippled

We caught up with the action on the flop just as the dealer was spreading out a flop of {A-Hearts} {2-Clubs} {3-Clubs}. Heads up, the player in the big blind put out a pot-sized bet of 700. Joe Cada was in position, and he bumped it up to 2,000. The big blind then moved all in over the top, and Cada called with the covering stack to put his opponent at risk.

Showdown
Big Blind: {A-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds}
Cada: {8-Clubs} {9-Clubs}

Cada was on the draw, but he wouldn't find much to flush about. The {9-Spades} on the turn gave him two more outs to hope for, but the blank {4-Diamonds} that rivered sent the pot to the man with the ace, knocking Cada down to a lonely 600 chips.

It's short-stack ninja time for the World Champ.
