"I Hate This Game...But I Love It"
Level 6
: 300/600, 600 ante
Sammy Aweida found himself below 20,000 after recently losing an all-in preflop situation with ace-jack to pocket tens where he flopped a jack and turned trips, only to see a ten fall on the river to give his opponent a full house and cede the double. Moments later, he got the rest of his stack all in prelfop in the cutoff against an opponent in middle position.
Sammy Aweida: 
Opponent: 
The flop 
gave Aweida a sweat as his opponent found himself with a dozen outs to send him to the rail. That number was reduced by three as Aweida picked up a set on the turn 
, and the river 
completed the runout safely to score him the double.
"I hate this game," joked Aweida after the runout completed. "But I love it."
