Salhab Gets Three Streets Out of Weinman; Ed Sheeran Lookalike Joins

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Fayek Salhab raised to 600 from under the gun, and Daniel Weinman defended his big blind.

Weinman check-called a bet of 1,200 from Salhab on the K♥7♠10♣ flop.

The 5♥ hit the turn, and Weinman check-called a second bet from Salhab, this time for 3,000.

Weinman checked for a final time on the 4♦ river, and Salhab fired a third and final barrel of 7,000. Weinman thought it over for a while before making the call.

Salhab tabled 5♦5♣ for a turned set of fives to take down the pot.

A nearby table welcomed Jason Koon to his seat, and after a few moments, one of his tablemates jokingly mistook him for the famous singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran.
