Sabia Takes a Dent

Level 7 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

On a flop of 936, 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.
