Tabatabai Gets Baker

Picking up the action on the final board of {A-Spades}{10-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{3-Spades}{K-Spades} with several thousand chips already in the middle, John Tabatabai checked to David "ODB" Baker. Baker fired a bet of 3,000, and Tabatabai came back at him with a reraise to 8,200. Baker tanked, then called.

Tabatabai tabled the {J-Spades}{6-Spades} for a pair of sixes on the flop that backed into a straight. Baker mucked his hand and dropped back to 62,000 in chips. Tabatabai climbed to nearly 40,000.
