Sartori Wins Again

Tom Sartori is involved in another pot, this time with local Fred Sigur. With a pot approaching 10,000 in chips, the board comes {K-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{A-Hearts}. On the last round of betting, Sartori fires out 6,000, and Sigur goes into the tank for several minutes before conceding the hand.

At the dinner break, Sartori had less than 7,000 in chips. Things weren't looking good, and just after dinner, he lost the first pot he played to drop to a dangerously low 3,000. However, in the last few minutes, Sartori has come charging back and is now the owner of a healthy stack of chips -- 28,000 worth of them, in fact -- at the expense of his fellow tablemates.
