Matt Salsberg

Three players were involved in a growing pot on a 7s5c4s flop. A player in the blinds checked to Salsberg, who bet 500. The player behind him called, the other folded, and it was heads-up to the turn.

It was the 7c. Salsberg bet another 3,100, and his opponent called.

The river was the 3s, and both players checked.

Salsberg showed Qs5s, winning the pot with a queen-high flush. His opponent flashed either 6d8d or 7d8d as he mucked, and he was relieved of the rest of his short stack one hand later by another player.

Salsberg has apparently been doing some good work early, sitting with well over twice the starting stack just an hour in.
