Eddy Sabat Eliminated in 13th Place ($4,229)
Jason Wheeler shoved on the previous hand with no callers, but when he did it for the second time, Eddy Sabat shoved all in right behind him. The rest of the table folded, and with the two men very close in chips, the cards were turned up.
Wheeler tabled his first, then craned his neck to see what Sabat showed down. "Tens?" he asked. Indeed, Sabat turned over to dominate his opponent. "Nice hand," Wheeler said.
"Not yet," Sabat cautioned, and his words would prove to foreshadow his fate.
The flop found Wheeler's pair, tripping him up to leave Sabat drawing slim. The turn meant that Sabat needed to find a four-out or to stay alive.
River:
That's no dice for Sabat, his tens betraying him. When the stacks were counted down, Wheeler's 128,000 covered Sabat's 119,000, and we're minus another player. Sabat finishes up in 13th place, good for a consolation prize of $4,229.
