Tsai Sends Salvaggi Deep Into the Mixer

Joseph Salvaggi was facing a big river decision as the board read . The pot had about 65,000 in it and Salvaggi was under the gun. From the cutoff, Ting-Yi Tsai had forced him all in with a river jam.

Salvaggi told his table that the hand would be the last one before break and with the clock still showing 3 and a half minutes until the break, it meant a long tank was to come. The rest of the table got up and got ready to beat the crowd to break, while still lingering to watch the result of the hand.

Salvaggi told Tsai he was leaning calling at first but had shifted to leaning fold. Eventually, he did indeed fold and Tsai did not oblige the request to show.
