Eddy Sabat Eliminated, Mike Scarborough Chipping Up
Level 6
: 200/400, 50 ante
Mike Scarborough raised to 1,000 in middle position, and Eddy Sabat three-bet to 3,200 in the cutoff. The button and blinds folded, and Scarborough called.
The flop came 
, and Scarborough checked. Sabat bet 2,900, and after a long pause, Scarborough put forward 25,000 chips, enough to put Sabat to an all-in decision.
Sabat called, and they showed down.
Scarborough: 
Sabat: 
Sabat's aces were ahead, but Scarborough had a pair and a gutshot straight draw.
The 
turn gave Scarborough the straight, and the 
river was insignificant.
Sabat, who just took fourth place in Event #29 $2,500 No-Limit Hold'em last night for $143,148, will not be making a deep run in this one.
