Van in Fine Condition

Second to act, David Saab raised to 1,000. The betting passed to Van Marcus, and he re-raised to 3,300 from the big blind. Saab moved all-in and Marcus insta-called, tabling his {A-Clubs} {A-Diamonds}. Saab's poor timing found him holding {A-Spades} {K-Diamonds}.

Saab paired up his king, but couldn't get over the hump on a board of {4-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {6-Spades} {J-Clubs} {3-Hearts}. He sent a double up over to Van Marcus, who dropped down to 8,600. Marcus improved to 22,000.
