Matt Salsberg Wins His First Hand

Dec 8, 2024

WPT Champion Matt Salsberg opens on the button to 700 and both players in the blinds call. 

The flop rolls out Spade KSpade QSpade 9 and action checks over to Salsberg who bets 1,000 which only the small blind calls. 

Salsberg bets 2,500 on the turn Club A when the small blind checks over to him and the small blind calls a second time. 

A Diamond 10 peels off on the river which sees the small blind bet 4,000 and Salsberg responds by raising to 15,000, which the small blind calls. 

He tables Spade 8Spade 3 for a flopped flush which is good to beat the small blind’s Club QSpade 10 for queens up and the former WPT Player of the Year starts off winning the first hand he plays.
