Sbrissa Tames the H.O.R.S.E. Whisperer

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

We caught up with the action after a raising was on the turn resulted in Victor Sbrissa getting his stack of 23,375 in against Tom Schneider, who won both Event #15: $1,500 H.O.R.S.E. and Event #29: $5,000 H.O.R.S.E. earlier this summer.

The board read {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}{7-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and Schneider had the {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} laid out in front of him for top two pair. Unfortunately for him, Sbrissa held the {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds} for a flopped set. Schneider was looking for either an ace or queen on the river to eliminate Sbrissa, but he'd only find the useless {J-Diamonds}.

Schneider must have gotten off to a quick start here on Day 1c because, despite that loss, he is still sitting with a stack of 20,500.
