Saka & Berisha Hit the Flop
Level 34
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Xhavit Berisha opened to 500,000 with A♦Q♣. Alain Saka defended his 6♥5♣ from the big blind.
Both players made a pair on the Q♠6♠4♥ flop. Saka check-called for 400,000.
On the 9♦ turn, Saka check-called for another 775,000, which brought in the 3♥ river, giving Berisha the best hand.
Saka checked for a third time, and Berisha fired a third barrel of 800,000, beefing the pot up to 4,500,000. Saka went into the tank and ultimately, he couldn't get away from his pair of sixes and called to see the bad news.
