Brandon Cantu Can Do

After an opponent raised to 400 from the cutoff, Brandon Cantu reraised to 925 and the opponent called. The players saw a board of {3-Hearts}{4-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} and checked it down the whole way.

Cantu showed down {K-Spades}{J-Spades} for a rivered pair of kings and his opponent mucked. The win pushed Cantu, who is most well-known for his deep run through the 2008 Main Event, to 6,000 chips as we head to break.
