Saliba Finds a Non-Believer
Nolan Curatolo opened to 1,500 from early position and Vivian Saliba three-bet to 4,500 from middle position. Curatolo made the call.
The flop came Q♣6♦4♥ and Nolan check-called a 3,000 continuation bet from Saliba.
Saliba bet again when checked to on the 8♠ turn, this time for 6,500. Curatolo made the call.
On the 8♥ river Curatolo checked once more and Saliba moved all in for 18,500, sending Curatolo into the tank.
"So strong" Curatolo commented.
"Looks strong, probably is strong" Saliba replied.
After a few minutes Saliba called the clock and, with five seconds remaining to act, Curatolo made the call, covering Saliba very slightly.
Curatolo showed down 6♥5♥ for two pair while Saliba tabled Q♥Q♦ for queens full of eights to secure a full double up while leaving Curatolo with just 400 chips.
Curatolo would bust and re-enter shortly afterwards.
