button in SafariSaiya Flops a Monster For the First Knockout
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
A player in early position three-bet to 2,100 and was called by Brian Cole in the hijack, Frank Saiya in the big blind, and another opponent under the gun.
The early-position player bet 4,000 on the 7♣Q♠7♦ flop, and only Cole and Saiya called. The turn was the 5♥ and the under-the-gun player bet another 5,000. Both opponents again called.
Action checked to Cole on the Q♥ river, and he bet 10,000. Saiya then moved all in for 19,000, the under-the-gun player folded, while Cole called for less.
Saiya then showed 7♠7♥ for flopped quads, and Cole mucked as he headed to the rail as the first bustout of the tournament.
