Chris Brewer opened 160,000 in the cutoff and Justin Saliba defended the big blind.
When the Q♣9♣2♦ flop hit the felt, Saliba check-called a bet of 110,000.
The J♣ fell on the turn, and Saliba check-called another bet of 400,000 from Brewer.
The dealer dropped the 10♠ on the river and Saliba checked for a final time before Brewer slid a bet of 870,000 across the line. Saliba leaned back in his chair as he sighed, and went deep into the tank. After some time passed, he eventually called off his stack of 825,000.
Brewer tabled A♥2♥, and Saliba took down the pot with a straight as he showed 10♦8♥.
