Danny Mountt limped in from middle position, only for David Saab to raise from the button. Russell Stevenson made the call from the big blind, as did Mountt to go the flop.

The flop came {8-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

{4-Spades}

{5-Spades}

and after Stevenson checked, Mountt fired out a bet, and Saab and Stevenson made the call.

The turn {3-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

saw Stevenson once again check, and again Mountt fired, Saab called, but Stevenson decided it was too expensive for his taste, choosing to instead fold.

The {6-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

was the river and both players checked. Mount showing down {q-Spades}

{q-Spades}

{10-Spades}

for a missed flush draw, queen high, and Saab {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{6-Spades}

for a pair and an an open ended straight draw.

Saab moves up to 10,400. Mountt on the other hand drops to 6,200.
