Salerno Starts the Day With Quads
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Elia Salerno raised to 17,000 on the button before Bastian Bluem three-bet to 100,000 in the big blind. Salerno then moved all in for 312,000, and Bluem snap-called.
Elia Salerno: Q♠Q♦
Bastian Bluem: A♣K♠
It was a classic flip, and Salerno hit top set on the Q♥10♥4♥ flop while Bluem picked up a straight draw. The turn was the 3♥, while the Q♣ fell on the river to give Salerno quads and earn him an early double up.
