River Keeps Saliba Alive
Level 17
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Roman Milaev opened 200,000 on the button and Justin Saliba jammed 955,000 in the small blind. Milaev went into the tank, using a time bank before deciding on a call.
Justin Saliba: K♦J♣ 
Roman Milaev: 7♦7♣
They were off to the races and Milaev was still out in front on the Q♦Q♥8♦ flop, the 3♦ turn gave Saliba a flush draw to go along with his two live cards and the K♥ river improved him to kings and queens for the double.
