Salley Sallies; Gets Beaten Down

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

A bad start followed by a bit of a recovery for John Salley, as he called a 750 bet on the turn of a {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{7-Diamonds}

{2-Spades}

{6-Clubs}

board with around 2,000 already in the pot.

Both players checked the {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

river, and Salley turned over {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

{9-Clubs}

for a straight -- his opponent had turned a bluff into a very small straight on the river with {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{5-Diamonds}

, but it wasn't good enough, and Salley's straight took the pot to put him up to 27,000.

Salley on 27,000.
