Cabrera Soars After Flopping the Nuts
Level 8
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
Courtesy of Spanish reporter Alex Hernando, we were able to find out details of how David Cabrera increased his stack to 360,000 in chips. The key moment came when Cabrera was sitting in the cutoff, facing a 2,500-raise from under the gun. Cabrera opted to three-bet to 8,500 and the initial aggressor fired back with a four-bet to 17,000.
Cabrera called in position and called another 15,000 on the 
flop. The turn came the 
and Cabrera paid off a second barrel worth 20,000.
The other player wasn't willing to give up and he fired a third shell on the 
river, moving all in for 40,000. Cabrera called again and showed 
for a flopped ace-high flush while his opponent had just 
with no heart.
