Seward Cracks Aces
Level 4
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Nicholas Seward opened to 5,500 from under the gun, and it folded to the big blind Justin Saliba, who three-bet to 30,000. Seward made the call.
The flop came 5♣2♥K♥ and Seward called a bet of 16,000 from Saliba.
After the 10♦ on the turn, Saliba checked to Seward, who bet out 75,000. Saliba took some time before moving all in for roughly 230,000, which Seward snap-called to put Saliba at risk.
Justin Saliba: A♥A♣
Nicholas Seward: 5♠5♦
Seward flopped a set and was able to crack the aces of Saliba after the 9♣ on the river, sending out Saliba and moving Seward to the top of the chip counts.
