Saliba Bluffs Early
Level 15
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Arriving on a turn on the board of 5?4?8?2?, Vivian Saliba made a bet of 55,000 into the pot of 140,000 from the big blind. Her opponent was Arvydas Merfeldas in the cutoff, and he made the call.
The 7? river then completed the board and Saliba did not take long before moving all in, covering the 150,000 chips Merfeldas had behind.
Merfeldas was even quicker, with his call, however. Saliba tabeled her A?2? for bottom pair, but Marfeldas had rivered a straight with his A?6? and raked in a double-up in the early stages of Day 3.
