Sabia Takes a Dent
Level 7
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
On a flop of 9♦3♥6♦, both Matthew Wantman in late position and Matthew Sabia in the cutoff checked to see the turn of 7♦.
Wantman bet out for 12,000, and Sabia called. The river brought the 10♠, and now Wantman checked. Sabia threw out a big 50,000 bet, which Wantman called. Sabia proudly turned over his 9x9x for a flopped set but was shocked when Wantman tables 8x6x for the straight.
