Sabat Slips with Trips

Eddy Sabat
Eddy Sabat
It's becoming hard to stray away from Eddy Sabat's table, as he has been involved in nearly every hand dealt.

A middle-position player and the man in the cutoff seat limp from in front of Sabat's small blind, and he and the big blind make it a four-way flop. It shows up {7-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {7-Spades}. Action is checked to the cutoff seat, and he puts in a bet of 300. Sabat and the middle-position player call, while the big blind ducks out.

Fourth street brings the {4-Clubs}. Sabat takes the lead now, flipping out a single pink T500 chip. Middle position calls, while the last player puts in a healthy raise to 2,500. This time, Sabat is the only one who comes along.

Heads up, the river reveals the {5-Spades}. Sabat leads back into the pot, tossing out a bet of just 1,100, which his opponent calls. Sabat tables {7-Clubs} {9-Clubs} for triple sevens. It's no good though, as his nemesis turns over {7-Hearts} {J-Hearts}, winning the pot with his three sevens, jack kicker.
