Saliba Takes From Ponakovs
Level 7
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Heads-up to the 8♥4♦3♦A♥ turn, Aleksejs Ponakovs checked and then called a bet worth 2,500 by Vivian Saliba. They checked the 10♦ river and Ponakovs declared "I win" before showing his 8♠5♣3♥2♣ for a wheel. Saliba, however, had that beat with the J♥7♠7♦2♥ for a flush.
"That will teach him," Justin Young joked.
"It is his first time playing Omaha," Justin Saliba added.
