FSPC Event #14 (Day 3): Antonio Salorio's Short-Stacked Ride Ends In 5th Place ($35,679)

2018 Florida State Poker Championship
Event #14 | $1,500 No Limit Hold'em ($500,000 GTD)
Level 27 (Blinds 30,000/60,000/60,000)
Total Event #14 Entries: 564
Event #14 Players Remaining: 4


Antonio Salorio (Coral Springs, FL) has a resume boasting impressive scores, most of which came before 2010.  This is his first cash since 2015, and third largest of his career.

Antonio Salorio (Coral Springs, FL) spent most of the day grinding a short stack, but was able to find some well-timed double-ups, that helped him ladder up.  After Jonathan Jaffe opened to 140,000, Salorio three-bet shoved for just over 500,000, with players folding behind.  Jaffe tossed in a chip for the call, and the hands would be tabled:

Salorio: A K♣
Jaffe: Q 10

Runout: Q♣ 7♣ 6♠ 6 9♣

Salorio stood from his seat just as the flop was coming out, and after seeing Jaffe flop a queen, he'd ask for an ace.  There would be no ace or king on the turn or river, and Antonio would bow out in 5th place ($35,679).  Today's result was Salorio's first since 2015, and helped bring his lifetime earnings to just over $385,000.
