Saliba Spikes the River to Survive
Level 14
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Ignacio Moron opened to 60,000 from under the gun and Justin Saliba defended the big blind.
The K♠10♦5♥ flop prompted Saliba to check-jam for 310,000 after seeing Moron move in 40,000. It didn't take long for Moron to put Saliba at risk and the pair flipped their hands.
Justin Saliba: Q♣J♠
Ignacio Moron: A♥10♥
Moron was ahead on the flop but Saliba had a number of straight draw outs to survive.
The K♦ turn didn't change much, but Saliba spiked the nine on the 9♣ to lock up the double.
