Sarmiento Rails One

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

Carlos Sarmiento has been busy since the last time we walked by his table and has just padded out his stack a little further, at the expense of Tim Uit De Haag.

Pre-flop it was Sarmiento in the driver's seat, accelerating up to 1,500 and picking up a caller in the form of Feng Wen Chen on the button before Uit De Haag squeezed all-in for 4,700 in total from the big blind.

Sarmiento made the call and Chen got out of the way to take the action heads-up.

Carlos Sarmiento: {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Tim Uit De Haag: {a-Clubs}{8-Spades}

While Uit De Haag had the best hand and a slight lead this was immediately nullified by the {k-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} flop. The {9-Spades} turn had one pip to many to aid Uit De Haag and the {3-Spades} was of no help whatsoever and he headed for the rail while Sarmiento scooped the pot.
