Kabbaj Gives One Up

Kabbaj:  Four is the Number!
Kabbaj: Four is the Number!
John Kabbaj, just prior to this hand having raised to 400 and taken some blinds, was in a talkative mood: "Four! Four is the number! Every time I raise to 350 I lose..."

Now on a fourway flop (spooky) of {10-Spades} {5-Clubs} {4-Clubs}, small blind Danny McHugh checked and big blind Jude Duffy bet out 425. Kabbaj called, but button Niall Campbell raised to 1,500. Duffy folded, and Kabbaj made the call. He gave it up, however, when Campbell (whose stack is a comfortable 22,000) bet 2,200 on the {5-Diamonds} turn.
