Card text
Whenever this creature deals damage to a player, that player gets a poison counter. The player gets another poison counter at the beginning of their next upkeep unless they pay before that step. (A player with ten or more poison counters loses the game.)

The ability still gives a poison counter even if Sabertooth Cobra leaves the battlefield before the next upkeep.
