Cada Back In It

Najib Kamand opened to 70,000 from the cutoff and action folded to Joe Cada's big blind. Cada peeked at his cards and then shipped his entire stack in for about 300,000. Kamand called and the hands were turned up:

Kamand: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}
Cada: {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}

Cada grabbed hold of the lead hard on the flop of {J-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{5-Spades} by flopping a set of fives. The {5-Clubs} then rolled off on the turn, giving Cada quad fives and a double up.

The meaningless {10-Spades} completed the board on the river and Cada grabbed a nice sized pot.
