Croft in Freefall
Level 27
: 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante
It's a bit of a freefall for Brandon Croft right now. He opened the last pot with a mini-raise to 60,000, and Matthew Waxman came along to see a heads-up flop.
The dealer laid out there, and the action check-checked to the turn. When Waxman checked again, Croft took his cue to bet 130,000 at the pot, and his opponent made the call. Both men checked once again on the river to go to showdown.
Croft tabled his unimproved , and Waxman's had that out-kicked and beaten fair and square. The good call earns Waxman the pot to move him over 1.5 million, while Croft is all the way down to just 420,000.
