Saab Lets it Go

Nabil Matta came in with a cutoff raise to 105,000, and Imad Saab put in the call from the button as both blinds quickly ducked out.

Heads up then, the flop came {4-Clubs} {7-Hearts} {K-Hearts}, and Matta checked. When Saab fired 150,000 though, Matta check-raised the minimum. After some quick debate, Saab folded his {10-Hearts} {10-Spades} face-up. Matta kindly flashed the {K-Diamonds} to ease Saab's suspicions, moving him up to 1,280,000. That little hit slips Saab back to 810,000.
