The Sultan of Swings Is Still In

Mario Stanic

A famous song by Dire Straits is called “The Sultans of Swing” but the Aussie version is slightly different, as Mario Stanic is the Sultan of Swings. Up early, he dropped all the way down to 8,000 and then doubled twice to get to 60,000.

He then loses two pots but climbs back up to more than the starting stack again. On a board of Club 10Heart 10Diamond 9Diamond JClub Q, the big blind checks and Stanic bets 4,000 on the button to take down the pot uncontested.

Mario Stanic – 50,000 (83 bb)
