Iqbal Gives Up on the River
Level 7
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
James Sassi raised to 1,200 under the gun and received three callers, including Majid Iqbal in the cutoff.
Action checked to Iqbal on the 10?5?6? flop and he bet 2,200. Only Sassi called and they went heads-up to the 8? turn.
Iqbal then bet 5,300 and Sassi again called. Sassi checked the 5? river. "You win," Iqbal said, tapping the felt and instantly mucking his cards.
"Do I have to show?" Sassi asked the dealer as he took in the pot without a showdown.
