Taleb Downs Fata and Munz
Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Salah Eddine Taleb opened to 10,000 from the hijack and was called by Mario Fata from the button. Fausto Munz put in his last 95,000 from the small blind, and Taleb called. Fata then jammed for 140,000 and Taleb flicked in more calling chips.
Fausto Munz: A♠K♦
Mario Fata: K♥J♥
Salah Eddine Taleb: A♦Q♠
Taleb became the huge favorite, pairing his queen on the Q♣7♣2♣ flop. No help came for Fata or Munz as Taleb improved to trips after the 5♦ turn and Q♥ river.
