Saleh Shooting Up the Counts

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

There were a bunch of players standing around Table #1 and the floor was giving Marinus van der Walle 30 seconds to take a decision.

The board read {q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{7-Clubs} and Van der Walle had checked in the hijack. Hadi Saleh shoved on the button with the bigger stack and Van der Walle tanked as he was at risk for his last 120,000 or so. When the floor started counting down, Van der Walle decided to call.

Van der Walle tabled {j-Hearts}{j-Spades} for the pair of jacks in his hand. Saleh showed {a-Spades}{q-Spades} for the flopped top pair.

The {9-Spades} on the river completed the board for Saleh to eliminate Van der Walle.
