Disgusting River Card
Level 5
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Action was opened in early position to 1,200. It folded all the way to Robert Saladin in the big blind who put in the cold three-bet to 3,700. The early position player called.
The 8♣10♥10♠ flop hit the felt and Saladin continued for 3,000. The player in early position then put in a hefty raise to 10,000. Saladin didn't think for a moment before moving all in. His opponent gave a head nod and instantly put in the chips. Saladin got some bad news.
Early Position: 8♦8♥
Robert Saladin: K♥K♣
Saladin was in bad shape going to the rest of the runout. The dealer put the 3♣ on the turn and then the K♦ came out like a miracle on the river.
Saladin would win in disgusting fashion but he is now sitting close to the chip lead.
