Cantu Check Raises All In on the River

Level 8 : 250/500, 50 ante

By the time we checked what was happening, the turn had already been dealt. {8-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} | {9-Spades} on the table and we saw Brandon check-calling a 3,700 bet. The river was the {6-Hearts} and Cantu checked once again. His opponent, two seats to his left, bet 8,000 full of confidence. By the looks of it (to the untrained eye) Cantu looked to be in doubt between calling and folding. Looks can be deceiving though as Cantu announced all in all of the sudden for, what looked like, a little more than 30,000. Cantu (under-the-gun) took the pot down as his opponent (under-the-gun plus two) folded.
