Robert Salaburu

Jake Balsiger had the button. Robert Salaburu opened to 620,000 from middle position, Michael Esposito called, and Steve Gee defended his big blind.

The flop fell {2-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, Gee checked, and Salaburu continued for 1 million. Esposito released, and Gee called.

The turn brought the {3-Spades}, Gee checked again, and Salaburu checked behind.

The {2-Hearts} completed the board, and Gee led out for 1.55 million. Salaburu snap-called, tabling {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}, and Gee mucked his hand.
