El Salsero Hanging On By A Thread

Per Munksgaard limped from under the gun. Jer El Salsero made it two blinds from the small blinds, Munksgaard shoved, and El Salsero called.

Jer El Salsero:
Per Munksgaard:

The flop was devastating for El Salsero, who was left drawing to running straight cards. After the turn and river, El Salsero was left with three big blinds. He got those in the middle in the next hand with against and chopped on a double paired board with an ace.

Still short, El Salsero folded a few hands in a row, including his big blind, until he called all in from the small blind for 11,100 after Dwayne Sluis had opened. Bart Lybaert also called from the big blind and the board got checked down.

Cards remained face-down until all action was completed, and El Salsero raised his hands up in the sky.

"Jer Salsero bubble!" he yelled, then paused a few seconds.

"... or maybe not," he smiled.

The cards were tabled and El Salsero showed for rivered Broadway. Sluis and Lybaert mucked their respective holdings, and the flamboyant Dutchman raked in the pot to survive.
