So Long, Saca
George Saca opened to 15,000 from middle position, and Dusty Leary three-bet him to 40,000 next door. Saca made a quick call, and the two men went off to a heads-up flop.
It brought and a check from both players, and the turn was where the action picked up. Saca led out with 63,000, close to half his remaining stack. Leary quickly announced an all in, and Saca instantly called to put himself at risk. It was a bit of a cooler:
Saca:
Leary:
Both men had flopped their sets, but Leary's trip aces had Saca drawing to one out for his survival. The river was close but no cigar, and Saca wished his table luck before heading out into the casino.
