Saab Sticks in Bad . . . Wins!

After doubling holding {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts} against {A-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} David Saab announced, "My plan is to stick it in bad!" . . . and fell true on his word when Sylvester Geoghegan moved all in for his last 900. Saab called on just his {10-Clubs}.

Geoghegan showed {A-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and Saab flipped his other card to reveal {10-Clubs}{5-Hearts}. The board ran out {A-Hearts}{2-Spades}{8-Spades}{5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} and Saab truly did stick it in bad to take down Match Two.

The two players are now taking a quick break before tackling the third round in their match.

Obst Crippled

Jarred Solomon opened to 275 from the button and James Obst made the call before leading for 500 on the flop of {Q-Hearts}{7-Spades}{8-Clubs}. Solomon made the call.

The turn landed the {J-Clubs} and Obst fired again for 1,000 this time. Solomon then proceeded to raise to 2,300 with Obst making the call. The river fell the {Q-Spades} and following a check from Obst, Solomon moved all in with Obst eventually folding.

Following the hand Obst was left with only 1,850 of his original starting stack.

Saab Can't Catch Break

Down a game, 2007 Champion David Saab can't catch a break.

He has had his opponent Sylvester Geoghegan all in three times, only for him to suck out each time. Most recently, Geoghegan was all in for his tournament life holding {J-Diamonds}{10-Spades} against Saab's {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}.

The board ran out {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{8-Spades} to double Geoghegan back to even as Saab looked to the heavens and yelled, "C'mon!!!"
