Big Bets Can't Find Action
Pot-Limit Omaha
Aden Salazar opened from the button for 800,000. Esther Taylor potted for 2,525,000 from the big blind, and Salazar called. Taylor Potted again on the flop, putting herself at risk by doing so. Salazar wasn't interested, however, and made the laydown.
No-Limit Hold'em
A couple hands later, it was Taylor who opened from the button, now for 600,000. Aden Salazar three-bet to 2,200,000 from the small blind, but was unable to find any takers as Taylor folded.
A couple more hands later, it was again Salazar who led out for 600,000, but this time it was Sandeep Pulusani who moved all in, for 5,675,000. Were Salazar to call and lose the pot, he and Pulusani would be neck and neck in chips. This was a risk Salazar was not willing to take, as he made the laydown after a couple minutes of tanking.
