Eddy Sabat Eliminated in 6th Place (A$79,765)
After Jonathan Karamalikis raised to 65,000 from the cutoff seat, action folded over to Eddy Sabat in the small blind. The 2008 APPT Macau champion put in a three-bet to 164,000 after some thought. Action then moved back over to Karamalikis. He took some time before four-betting all in, having Sabat well covered. Immediately after Karamalikis shoved, Sabat stood from his chair and said, "Wow." He thought for a little bit longer while standing and then announced, "Call." He was all in for about one million even.
Sabat flipped over the 
and was flipping for his tournament life as Karamalikis held the 
. The respective rails began yelling for cards in favor of the player they were rooting for.
The flop came down 
and Sabat couldn't find any help just yet. He still had a turn and a river to try and spike something to double up. Karamalikis sat quietly while getting a massage and Sabat stood watching.
The turn brought the 
and Sabat was one card away from either doubling up or going home.
The river card completed the board with paint, but it wasn't the paint Sabat needed when the 
put trips on the board. Sabat's big slick failed to hit and Karamalikis won the pot with full house to improve to 3.8 million.
Sabat, a PokerStars player, finished in sixth place after becoming the only former APPT champion to make a second final table on the tour. This time he didn't win, but he took home A$79,765 for his efforts.
