Cantu Find the Value?

Level 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

Brandon Cantu found three streets on thin value in a hand versus Bart Hanson to move up to more than 9,000 chips.

Hanson opened to 275 from early position and was only called by Cantu on the button. The flop fell {j-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{8-Spades} and Hanson check-called a 325 bet to see the {3-Diamonds} turn. He checked once more to Cantu who fired 700. Call.

Hanson faced a 825 bet on the {q-Hearts} river when he checked for a third time. This decision took him the longest but he still called, and then mucked upon seeing Cantu's {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}.
