Salera Puts Malebranche in the Blender

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Joe Malebranche raised to 1,500 from middle position, and was called by a player in the hijack, and the small blind Robert Salera.

The flop came 8?3?4? and Salera checked to Malebranche who bet out 2,000. The hijack folded, and Salera raised to 5,000, which was called by Malebranche.

After the Q? on the turn, Salera bet out 11,000, which was called by Malebranche.

The river was the 7? and Salera bet 17,000. Malebranche who was visibly frustrated, sat in the tank for nearly a minute before finding a fold, to give the pot to Salera.
