Yunis Raises Out Sabia, Takes Out Maor
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Matthew Sabia raised to 5,000 under the gun and Nick Yunis called in middle position. Daniel Maor then three-bet to 30,000 on the button, and both opponents called.
The flop came J♠6♦2♠ and Sabia led out for 10,000. Yunis then raised to 27,000 and Maor tossed in his last 500 chip, while Sabia quickly got out of the way.
Daniel Maor: A♦J♣ 
Nick Yunis: Q♦Q♠
Maor had flopped top pair, but he needed to improve against Yunis' two queens. The 8♣ turn was no help, while the river was the 2♦ and Maor was sent to the rail.
