Big Slick Doesn't Do the Trick for Sanchez

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

Jake Abdalla opened for 1,000 in early position and was met by a three-bet to 2,550 by Georgios Sotiropoulos, who was fresh off winning the LAPT Bahamas Main Event. Diego Sanchez then four-bet to 7,550 from the big blind, both his opponents called, and the flop came down {6-Spades}{q-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}.

All three players checked, the dealer burned and turned the {a-Spades}, and Sanchez checked. Abdalla bet 7,300, Sotiropoulos folded, and Sanchez check-raised all in for 16,575. Abdalla snap-called and Sanchez discovered the bad news.

Sanchez: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Abdalla: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

Sanchez had turned top pair, but he was drawing dead to the flopped set of Abdalla. The meaningless {7-Diamonds} was run out on the river for good measure, and Sanchez hit the rail.
