Alioto Spikes the River to Leave Saliba on Fumes

Dario Alioto, Vivian Saliba, and Shaun Deeb went three-handed to a flop of 10♣8♥5♠ where Alioto made a pot-sized bet of 25,000 from under the gun. Saliba then moved all in from the cutoff, Deeb folded the button, and Alioto called for 85,000.

Dario Alioto: 9♠7♦6♥5♥ All in
Vivian Saliba: A♣J♠10♠8♣

Saliba showed top two pair and needed to hold against Alioto's straight draws. The A♥ turn was safe for Saliba, but the J♣ river gave Alioto a straight and a double up while leaving Saliba on a short stack.
