Saliba Has Had Aces...Twice
Level 17
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
"I haven't had aces this entire tournament," Tom Orpaz said before the hand.
"I had them. Got lucky, aces over kings," Justin Saliba said as he raised to 90,000 in the cutoff. Gerard Pique called in the big blind.
The flop came 6?8?K? and Saliba won the pot with another bet of 90,000. He then turned over A?A?.
"I've now had aces twice," he said.
"I get a sense the poker gods are paying attention to the conversation," Erik Seidel added.
"Poker is a silly game," Saliba replied.
