Caballero Put to the Test
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Picking up the action on the river, Victor Caballero in middle position was involved in a hand with an opponent on the button.
With the board reading 10♣Q♣J♦6♦2♥ and around 100,000 in the pot, Caballero bet 33,000. The button player responded by moving all in with the covering stack. That sent Caballero deep into the tank as he considered calling off for his remaining 140,000. After several minutes, he did let his hand go to preserve his stack as the money bubble begins to loom on the horizon.
