Strelitz Part 3: Not Slowing Down

Daniel Strelitz has gone from about three million in chips to the chip lead with over nine million thanks to a rapid succession of hands that have catapulted him to the top. You can read Part 1 here and Part 2 here, the following is Part 3.

From under the gun, Robert Salaburu raised to 120,000. Strelitz called from the hijack seat and Marty Zabib called from the big blind. All three players saw the flop come down {Q-Clubs}{9-Spades}{5-Diamonds} and Zabib checked. Salaburu bet 200,000 and Strelitz called. Zabib also called.

On the turn, the {10-Hearts} landed. Zabib and Salaburu checked before Strelitz bet 530,000. Zabib called and Salaburu folded.

The {5-Clubs} completed the board on the river and Zabib checked. Strelitz moved all in and Zabib folded his hand.
