Saliba Flops A Straight
Level 13
: 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Action picked up on a flop reading 
with Justin Saliba in the cutoff facing a bet of 10,000 from an early position player. Saliba raised to 34,000 and after some deliberation, the opponent went all-in for 80,000 and Saliba snap-called.
Opponent: 
Justin Saliba: 
The opponent had top pair, top kicker with a backdoor flushdraw, but Saliba had flopped the nut straight with a backdoor flushdraw. The turn of 
turned those backdoors into draws, but the river 
was no help to the opponent and Saliba was sent the pot.
