Salerno Turns Quads to Decimate Stranak
Level 27
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Elia Salerno was all in for 740,000 from the big blind and up against Samuel Stranak under the gun.
Elia Salerno: 7?7?
Samuel Stranak: A?Q?
The players were off to the races, but Stranak quickly ran out of gas on the J?7?2? flop as Salerno flopped a set.
The turn was the 7? and Salerno made quads. The A? on the river was useless to Stranak as he handed over most of his stack.
Stranak doubled up a few hands later when he moved all in with Q?J? against Hertsel Levy's K?Q? and made two pair on the 2?8?Q?J?3? board.
