Shino Outshines Sabat

Edward Sabat
Edward Sabat
Edward Sabat has been splashing around in a number of pots here in the early going, and we find him at it again over on Table 12. From second position, he comes in with a limp. Action passes around to Yasuki Shino, and he raises it up to 150. Koray Turker calls, and Sabat joins the fun as the three men see a flop.

It comes {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts} {8-Diamonds}. Sabat checks, and Shino continues out with 150 chips. Both opponents call.

Fourth street brings the {6-Hearts}, and all three players check.

The river is the {2-Hearts}. Sabat takes charge now, leading out with a rainbow bet of 625. Shino lobs the calling chips into the middle, while Turker ducks out. With the action complete, Sabat turns over his {8-Clubs} {6-Diamonds}. It's no good though; Shino tables {A-Hearts} {2-Clubs}, having drawn to a better two pair on the river.

Sabat's stack is shrinking somewhat as he continues to get involved. He's down to 7,350.
