Salaburu Crushes Wolpert's Aces

On a {J-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop Jamie Sill checked to Leo Wolpert who bet 23,000. Robert Salaburu decided to raise it up to 46,000. The action was on Sill who called, and Wolpert moved all in.

Wolpert put both his to the test, and Salaburu called all in for this tournament life. Sill folded his cards, and we got to see the following showdown.

Leo Wolpert{A-Spades}{A-Clubs}
Robert Salaburu{5-Spades}{5-Clubs}

The turn was the {5-Diamonds}, and Salaburu hit quads. On the river the {6-Hearts} hit, and Wolpert paid off a total of 340,000 chips. He still had plenty left, while Salaburu is in great shape as well now.
