Pak Hits Quads to Eliminate Salhab On Soft Bubble
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Budwey Salhab raised to 16,000 under the gun and was three-bet by Edward Pak in middle position to 48,000. Salhab called and check-called Pak's continuation-bet of 65,000 on the 10♣9♣Q♣ flop.
The turn came the J♥, on which Pak upped the ante to 175,000. Salhab then moved in for 341,000, sending Pak into the tank. He asked for a count and tossed in a call after some more thought.
Budwey Salhab: A♣K♠ 
Edward Pak: J♠J♣
Salhab was ahead with his straight and nut flush draw, but the J♦ river brought a fourth jack for Pak to win the pot and bust out Salhab.
"Fuck you, dude," an obviously unhappy Salhab said to Pak. "That was the worst call in history."
"I had a straight flush draw," Pak defended himself as he raked in the pot.
