Saleh Dons His Cape and Hero Calls Sanchez

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Yousef Saleh
Yousef Saleh

Sley Sanchez raised to 50,000 from the hijack, and Yousef Saleh called in the big blind.

Saleh checked the {6-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{8-Spades} flop over to Sanchez, who bet 40,000. Saleh check-raised to 80,000, and Sanchez three-bet to 215,000. Saleh called.

Both players checked the {5-Spades} turn, and the {9-Spades} fell on the river. Saleh checked, and Sanchez bet 160,000. Saleh called.

Sanchez tabled {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} for ace-high, and Saleh, undeterred by the four-flush and one-liner straight on the board, held {9-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for two pair, good enough to take the big pot and jump to a big lead with seven remaining.
