Sabbia's Bad Luck Wish Granted

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Kenna James opened for 4,000 under the gun, Ruslan Sladkov called in the next seat, and Michael Sabbia shoved in the big blind for 36,800. James folded but Sladkov called after confirming the count.

Ruslan Sladkov: {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}
Michael Sabbia: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}

"I'd like to wish you luck," Sabbia quipped. "But I didn't say good luck."

The board ran out in Sabbia's favor: {q-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{6-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}. He doubled up.
