Salazar Rivers a Flush to Knockout Opponent

Level 8 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Action was picked up after the river, with 17,500 in the pot and a {5-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} board.

Eric Salazar, in the big blind, fired 25,800 into the middle. His opponent, from early position, moved all in with 90,500 behind. Salazar took a few minutes to think, before finally finding the call.

Salazar turned over {8-Clubs}{10-Clubs} giving him the flush, as his opponent mucked his hand and was sent to the rail.

The hand gave Salazar one of the biggest chip stacks in the room as the players enter their second break.
