Sabat Straightens Out at Chua's Expense

Things are quickly going south for Charles Chua. Edward Sabat raised the minimum, to 40,000, from under the gun and was called only by Chua. Chua quickly checked a flop of {6-Hearts}

to Sabat, who bet about half his stack, 101,000. Chua raised all in and Sabat, who had committed himself to the hand with his bet, called.

Chua: {10-Clubs}

Sabat:

Chua's two pair was in the lead, as Sabat committed himself to the hand with a naked straight draw. He missed the turn {8-Diamonds}

. With drama at its peak in the TV table area, the dealer burned and turned the {9-Hearts}

to fill Sabat's straight. He went running over to some friends on the rail as the card came down, smashing a monitor on one of the television cameras in the process.
