Saab Rolls Out

David Saab Eliminated
David Saab Eliminated
David Saab opened with a raise to 1,500 from late position before his opponent Brett Burgess popped it up to 4,500 from the small blind. Saab moved all in for 9,800 and Burgess made the call.

Saab: {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}
Burgess: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}

Saab was in a dominant position however the board was unkind to him as it landed {8-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} giving Burgess a pair of queens and the pot. Saab is sent packing as Burgess now stacks up 41,000 chips.
