Saliba Takes From Mizrachi as Vaughn First to Depart
Level 5
: Limits 1,200/2,400, 0 ante
Justin Saliba raised preflop, and Robert Mizrachi three-bet. It folded back to Saliba, who called to the 8♥5♣Q♣ flop, where he check-called Mizrachi's continuation-bet.
The players followed the same recipe on the 8♠ turn before they both checked the 10♦ river.
Saliba tabled A♥K♥K♦Q♠ for kings and eights, and won the pot when Mizrachi mucked his cards.
During the hand, Jeffrey Vaughn's agonizing yells of defeat could be heard across the Paris tournament area as he was the first player to leave the tournament empty-handed.
