Tough Times For Cinca
Kubanychbek Abakirov raised to 60,000 from under the gun and was called by Rabih Saad before Alexandru Cinca, in middle position, three-bet to 250,000.
Abakirov put in a four-bet to 610,000 when action folded back to him. Saad quickly folded, but Cinca tanked for a few moments.
"What the f**k am I supposed to do now," he said before he mucked. "Three months ago I would never fold that hand, but times are tough right now."
They would get a little better a few hands later, however. Cinca, Saad, and Fahredin Mustafov went three-handed to the turn on a board of 
when Cinca bet 50,000. Mustafov raised to 250,000 from the small blind and Saad folded.
Cinca called to the 
river and Mustafov slowed down and checked. "Eighty," Cinca announced, and Mustafov quickly folded.
