Don't Mess With Little Man

Event 1: $350 + $50 DS NL (2 re-entry)         

Abul Moborrod was up to ~575k, good for second in chips behind Lana Maier.

Then this hand took place:

Mike 'Little Man' Sica opened for 12,500 from the middle and Abul called from the small blind.  The flop came 8 4 3 with two spades.  Abul led out for 30k.  Mike gave it some thought, then min-raised to 60k.  Abul called to see an offsuit 9 on the turn. 

Abul announced he was all-in and Little Man snap-called all-in for 141,500, showing pocket 8s for the set.  Abul held T7 of spades for the flush draw with open-ender and a lot of outs.  Mike faded them all when the river bricked.  He doubled up to ~435k to join the leaders.  Not bad considering he was down to 11k just a couple of hours ago.  Abul dropped below 400k.
