Saliba Waits For the Clock
Level 21
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Vivian Saliba raised to 400,000 under the gun, leaving herself around 50,000 back, and Eusebiu Jalba moved all in from early position.
"Pay jump. One minute," Saliba said as she looked up at the tournament clock. Another 30 seconds went by before Adrian Mateos called the clock. Saliba waited for the timer to reach a few seconds before calling.
Vivian Saliba: A♥K♥
Eusebiu Jalba: 10♦10♥
The two players were racing, but Jalba took a big lead on the 9♣4♥10♣ flop with top set. The 4♣ turn improved him to a full house and left Saliba drawing dead by the 8♦ river and heading for the exit.
