Stoica Shoves and Shows a Seven; Other Counts From the Side Room

David Salituro

Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

A player in early position raised to 5,500 before Fouad Rabahie three-bet to 14,000 in middle position. Roman Stoica then four-bet to 41,500 in the small blind and only Rabahie called.

The flop came Q?6?6? and Stoica continued for 20,000. Rabahie called and the 8? fell on the turn. Stoica then moved all in for 170,000.

"Do you want me to call?" Rabahie asked as he went into the tank for several minutes, leaning back in his chair with his hands resting on his head. He eventually flung queen-ten into the muck.

"Too expensive," he added. Stoica showed him the 7? as he took the pot.
