Hand #11: Flush for Salaburu

Level 34 : 150,000/300,000, 40,000 ante

Michael Esposito started this hand with the button. Robert Salaburu raised to 650,000 from the hijack seat, and Jake Balsiger called from the big blind.

On the flop, the {Q-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{2-Hearts} fell, and Balsiger checked. Salaburu fired 730,000 quickly, and Balsiger called.

The {3-Clubs} landed on the turn, and Balsiger checked. Salaburu bet 425,000, which was smaller than both his flop bet and preflop raise. Balsiger called.

The river was the {4-Hearts} bringing in a fourth piece of love. Balsiger checked, and Salaburu checked before showing the {8-Hearts}{8-Spades} for a flush. Balsiger mucked, and Salaburu won the pot.
