Waxman Forced to Give It Up

Action was checked by one player on the {K-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{9-Spades} flop and then Matt Waxman fired 350. His opponent check-raised to 1,200 and Waxman made the call.

The turn was the {2-Diamonds} and Waxman was faced with a bet of 1,700 from his opponent. He called.

The river completed the board with the {Q-Diamonds} and the player moved all in for 5,800, having Waxman's remaining 2,175 covered. Waxman tanked for a minute and then folded his hand. His opponent showed the {J-Spades}.

Shortly after this hand, Waxman was eliminated.
