Eddy Sabat is now officially on a post-dinner heater and now has his stack in the 50,000-chip range.
One tablemate called him out on it, but Sabat was quick to point out this shorty had been all in behind more than once and is clearly, considering the odds of the hands he's played, getting a lot luckier just to stay alive.

: 150/300, 25 ante
November Niner Ylon Schwartz decided the best course of action following one opponent's raise and another's call on a
