Savage Slides

Catching the action on a flop of {4-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}, a middle position player led out for 2,050 and Matt Savage made the call. The turn brought the {9-Spades} and it was checked to Savage who fired 3,000. He was met with a check-raise to 8,050 but Savage insta-called.

The river was the {2-Hearts} and a bet of 12,000 was again met with a quick call from Savage. His opponent opened {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts} for a set of nines as Savage shook his head and mucked. He's down to 28,000.
