Waxman's Stack is Dangerously Growing

Matt Waxman is looking for his second WSOP gold bracelet and his first since 2013. He came into Day 2 with an average stack and has continued to rake in pots and build his chip stack, all of which are dangerous for his opponents.

In a recent hand, the board read with around 25,000 in the pot. Waxman was in the big blind and led out for 15,000. His opponent, sitting in the cutoff position, called, and the fell on the river. Waxman moved all in, which was considered a pot-sized bet of 52,000. His opponent only had around 32,000 remaining and thought for a couple minutes before deciding to fold.
