King Edward

We missed the preflop action, but caught the hand after the flop came down {8-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {2-Clubs} for Edward Sabat and his opponent. After moving his last 5,400 into the middle, Sabat saw his pocket kings up against the pocket nines of his opponent. With over 3,000 already in the middle, this pot could bring Sabat back to where he wanted to be.

The turn gave Sabat a few more cards to worry about when the {6-Spades} rolled off. The river blanked off with the {Q-Hearts}, giving Sabat the win. He is now just over the 14,000 chip mark.
