Salaburu Takes Big Hit

We found Robert Salaburu and his opponent looking at a board that read {4-Diamonds}{A-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{8-Spades}. Salaburu moved 8,000 into the center of the table and after some pondering, his opponent announced that he was all in for 38,600 total.

Salaburu shrugged and called, tabling {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts} in the process. Unfortunately for Salaburu, his opponent showed {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs} for a set of eights and the best hand.

Losing this hand caused Salaburu to lose a substantial chunk of change and the man who was our first player over 100,000 today now is sitting on about 46,000.
