Saab Loses Another Race

David Saab is losing his flips today. He raised to 700 from late position before being reraised by the small blind to 1,800. Saab moved all in and was quickly called.

"I just have ace-king," said Saab as he showed {A-Clubs} {K-Clubs}. He was up against {8-Spades} {8-Diamonds}. "A race! I've already lost one of these today."

Saab couldn't find any way to connect with a board of {9-Spades} {10-Hearts} {6-Hearts} {3-Hearts} {6-Clubs}. As a result, he had to ship 10,650 chips to his opponent.

"That's two!" said Saab. "But that's alright. I can come back." With just 8,200 remaining chips, his work is cut out for him.

The PokerNews video team caught up with Saab at last night's APPT Sydney Welcome Party, where he was having an "awesome" time. Check it out:
