Tabatabai Through to Round Three

Scott sent home in epic day of matches
Scott sent home in epic day of matches
Both players saw the flop of {3-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{7-Clubs} in a limped pot. Andrew Scott led out for 200 and John Tabatabai made the call.

The turn fell the {2-Diamonds}, and Scott led strongly again for 500 with Tabatabai making the call. When the river landed the {Q-Hearts} Scott checked to Tabatabai, who fired out a 1,300 bet. Scott followed this up by check-raising all in for 2,225, which put Tabatabai to a decision.

A decision it was as Tabatabai tanked for near 90 seconds before throwing in the additional two white 500 chips to make the call. Scott showed {7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for middle pair, but Tabatabai flipped over his {Q-Clubs}{4-Clubs} for a rivered bigger pair in his chase of a club flush.

Scott heads to the rail following yet another marathon match, as Tabatabai's opponet Jan Suchanek takes his seat while he waits for Tabatabai to return from a well-earned break.

David Gent limped the button for 400 and Michael Pesek slid a stack of white 500 chips into the middle, for a total bet of 12,000.

Gent counted out his remaining chips and made the call for his tournament life. Gent was in front with his {A-Clubs}{6-Spades} against Pesek's {K-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}, and would remain that way when the board ran out {7-Spades}{8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. Gent doubled to 12,350 and Pesek is down to 7,650.

Set for Tabatabai?

John Tabatabai made it 250 to go and, after deliberating for a minute or so, Andrew Scott made the call.

The flop fell {7-Hearts}{6-Spades}{3-Diamonds}, and Scott led out for 750 with Tabatabai making the call. The turn landed the {J-Diamonds} and Scott made it 900 this time. Tabatabai sat in the tank for nearly three minutes before sliding his remaining 4,050 into the pot.

"Did you flop a set again?" questioned Scott before eventually mucking and leaving himself with 3,700 in chips.
