Saliba Gets Into Trouble With Fresh Stack
Level 8
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Vivian Saliba was one of the players who made a fresh entry in the first level of Day 2, and she was involved in a blind-on-blind battle with Ruslan Volkov. The pot had 30,600 chips in it when both players checked the board of A?10?5?9?. The 4? river then completed the board and Saliba checked once again from the small blind.
Volkov put out a bet of 19,000, and Saliba thought it over for a few minutes before putting in the required amount for a call. Volkov tabled A?2? for top pair with no kicker, and he raked in the pot when Saliba mucked her cards with visible frustration.
