"I Didn't Hate the Turn, but I Didn't Like the River"

Level 16
: 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
A player in middle position opened for 4,800 and Kevin Saul called from the small blind. The flop saw Saul lead out for 5,500, his opponent call and the dealer burn and turn the
. Both players checked, as they did on the
river, and Saul sighed before tabling the
for a flopped straight.
It was good as his opponent mucked. "I didn't hate the turn but I didn't like the river," Saul lamented.
