Big Stacks Collide

Kyle Keranen opened to 50,000 under the gun and Robert Salaburu three-bet to 115,000 on the button. Action folded back to Keranen who four-bet to what looked to be about 300,000. Selaburu nearly beat him into the pot, immediately putting chips out next to Keranen's to match.

The {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{7-Diamonds} flop was checked by both players, landing the {Q-Spades} turn. Keranen put out chips to bet, Selaburu folded instantly, and Keranen took down the pot.
