Cowboys for the Cowboy

After a flop of {5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{3-Spades}, Eddy Sabat, wearing bright-yellow rimmed sunglasses at the moment, checked, and Hoyt Corkins, donning his usual cowboy hat, checked as well.

The turn was the {7-Clubs}. Sabat checked, Corkins bet 1,500, and Sabat called. The river brought the {10-Diamonds}. Sabat put out a tiny bet of 325, hardly enough to deter Corkins who raised to 2,200. Sabat made the call.

Corkins showed {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}, and Sabat mucked. Corkins is now up to 46,300. Meanwhile, the day isn't looking so rosy at the moment through those sunglasses for Sabat. Shortly after that hand, Sabat dropped another one to Raymond Davis and has slipped to 16,500.
