Lessa Takes From Saliba
Level 23
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Pedro Garagnani opened in early position and was called by Henrique Lessa on the button and Justin Saliba in the big blind.
The flop of 6♠7♦6♦ checked through and Saliba checked again on the Q♠ turn. Garagnani bet 85,000 and Lessa called before Saliba check-raised to 360,000. Garagnani folded and Lessa called.
Saliba checked on the J♠ turn and Lessa checked back. Saliba, who was recently interviewed by Jeff Platt, showed K♠Q♣ for a pair of queens, but he was out-kicked by the A♦Q♥ of his opponent.
