Klodnicki KO'd

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

On a {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop Chris Klodnicki check-called a 2,500-chip bet from an opponent to see the {5-Clubs} land on the turn.

Klodnicki checked once again and was met with a 5,000-chip bet only to check-raise to 13,000. His opponent made the call as the {6-Spades} completed the board on the river. Klodnicki saw the remainder of his chips committed to the pot, and when his opponent made the call holding {6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}, Klodnicki was forced to make a painful exit to the rail.

Sabat to 30k

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

Facing a preflop raise to 2,000, Eddy Sabat made the call from the button along with Kevin Saul from the big blind.

Saul checked the {Q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{2-Clubs} flop to see the original raiser fire out a continuation-bet of 2,400 only to have Sabat slide out a raise of 7,000.

Saul mucked, as did the preflop aggressor, as Sabat collected the pot to move to over 30,000 in chips.
