Christopher Pasion Knocks Out George Salud

Level 7: 500 / 1,000 ante: 1,000

Pasion Christopher

Cutoff Christopher Pasion opens 2,000, small blind George Salud pumps it to 8,000 and Pasion fills up to see the flop 9♥ 8♣ 8♥ where Salud forks out a 10,000 c-bet and Pasion peels to the turn A♥ . Salud check-calls his remaining 29,800 with A♦ J♣ after Pasion put him all-in with 5♦ 8♦ . The river J♥ is not enough for Salud and Pasion breaks the 6-digit mark.
