Sam Sayegh (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) climbs the leaderboard, fading Angelo Miele's outs to win.

"Raaiissee," was the first thing that could be heard, coming loudly from the dealer at Table 9.  She was announcing Sam Sayegh's (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) raise, in a hand between Angelo Miele and an unknown player.  On a flop of Q♦ 6♥ 3♥, there was a lead for 5,000, with Miele making the call, and Sam Sayegh raising to 13,500.  Miele put together his full stack (just under 40,000), and pushed it across his cards.  Sayegh made the call, with the original bettor folding, leaving Miele at risk for his tournament.  

When the hands were tabled, Sayegh turned over K♦ Q♠ (top pair), followed by Miele showing A♥ 4♥ (flight draw with an over-card).  Angelo stood from the table, hoping to grab the lead on the turn or river, but neither brought him help, and he'd be eliminated form Flight 1G.  Sayegh would collect the 80,000 pot, bringing his total to 145,000.

Sam Sayegh - 145,000
