Le Gets Waxed

From under the gun, Matt Waxman raised to 5,600. Action moved around the table to Nam Le in the cutoff seat. Le took his time and counted out his own stack of about 50,000 before moving all in. Action folded back over to Waxman and he called after a quick check back at his hand. He tabled the {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs} and was up against the at-risk Le's {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}.

The flop came down {10-Hearts}{9-Spades}{8-Clubs} and Le's queens were good so far. The turn added an extra sweat with the {7-Clubs} peeling off to give Waxman a flush draw. A six would mean a chopped pot.

The river completed the board with the {A-Diamonds} and hit Waxman, giving him a pair of aces and the winning hand. Le wished everyone good luck and headed to the rail. Waxman is up to about 120,000 in chips.
