Sammartino Scores Huge Double Through Kabir
Level 17
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Picking up the action on the 8♦5♥3♥9♣ turn, Dario Sammartino checked and then called a bet worth 200,000 by the table chip leader Keneshka Kabir from one seat over.
Sammartino checked again the 4♣ on the river and Kabir took just a few seconds before announcing all-in.
That sent the Italian into the tank for five minutes as the end of the level was reached. Sammartino then called and Kabir revealed his Q♦10♣ for a bluff gone wrong.
Sammartino slammed his A♦K♣ on the felt for a hero-call with ace-king high and doubled for 512,000 to put a big dent into Kabir's stack.
