Saliba Spikes a Five to Triple Up
Level 10
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Youngshin Im opened to 3,200 from early position and Roland Israelashvili called from the button. Vivian Saliba moved all in for 12,100 from the small blind and Im made the call. Israelashvili reshoved, covering both opponents, and Im made the call putting herself at risk.
Vivian Saliba: 5♣5♠
Youngshin Im: 6♦6♥
Roland Israelashvili: A♠7♠
The flop came 3♠J♠9♦ giving Israelashvili a plethora of outs to score the double knockout. The 10♦ turn was a blank and the 5♦ river gave Saliba a set of fives to secure a full triple up while Im took the side pot with her pocket sixes.
