Sebok is Sick

Joe Sebok raised the pot under-the-gun, making it 1,200 to go. The lone call came from the player in the big blind, and the two were heads-up to the flop.

The first three cards off the deck were {A-Spades}{8-Clubs}{6-Hearts}, the big blind checked, and Sebok continued out with another 1,200-chip bet. Sebok got shoved though, as the big blind check-raised him all in, having Sebok covered by just 600. Sebok made the call, and the hands were turned over, Sebok's {A-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} against his opponent's {A-Hearts}{J-Spades}. The turn and river failed to save Sebok, and he is crippled down to 600.
