Sach Rues Fold

Jim Sachinidis is known for wearing his heart on his sleeve, but no one can blame him for showing some frustrations after the following hand went down.

The action flop was {6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} where the action checked to Sachinidis who fired 1,500. A player in the cutoff made it 4,000 and the player under the gun called the 4,000 cold. Sach took another look at his {6-?}{4-?} and decided to let it go.

The turn then fell the {4-Clubs} and Sach stood and walked from the table in disgust, but the story doesn't end there. His opponents got their money in the middle with one showing {A-Clubs}{A-Spades} for the rockets while the other had {3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}. Sach was ropable that we would've stacked both and won a 60k pot!

Then, just to rub some more salt into the wound, the river was the {4-Hearts} as Sach misses the chance to make quads as the pot was shipped to his opponent.
