Cruz Martinez Sneaks Closer to Salem
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Chip leader Naseem Salem opened the action to 400,000 under the gun. Alexis Cruz Martinez flatted from the small blind, as did Joey Weissman from the big blind.
On a flop of 4♣8♦6♥, Salem continued when checked to, betting to the tune of 700,000. Cruz Martinez stuck around, but Weissman did not.
The 9♥ turn checked through, bringing in a board pairing 9♣ on the river. Cruz Martinez then led out for 900,000. Salem called very quickly, but his two pair with A♥8♥ was beaten by Cruz Martinez, who had sneakily limped Q♠Q♦ preflop.
