With millions of dollars in live tournament earnings, one of the world’s most consistent performers is Justin Saliba. The American is also one of biggest winners selling his action on PokerStake and has crushed the competition in high roller tournaments around the world. Back in August, Justin even explained his growth mindset to us. But can he beat our 15 Bigs questions?

In poker tournaments, reaching the stack size of 15 big blinds is often pivotal in whether a player survives or falls. Our 15 Bigs teasers are designed to push a poker player to the test in every direction – personal, professional, from fun to faults, heroes to villains. Can Justin survive our 15 Bigs? Let’s push our chips into the middle and see how Justin can do.

You’re on a long-haul flight and can only choose one TV Show or Movie to watch on repeat, which is your pick?

Can’t Hurt Me by David Goggins.

Burn by Usher.

Montenegro. The landscape and the beaches are amazing, and I love the food. It’s the perfect poker stop to me.

If you were to be shot at dawn, what would be your last meal and drink?

Lebanese mezze with tabbouli, hummus and grape leaves. Wagyu New York Strip with a single large parmesan crusted scallop, baklava spread with chocolate eclairs and lebanese coffee for dessert! Rose water to drink with dinner.

Where’s your favourite non-poker holiday destination?

Kobe Bryant.

Retro-active payout structures or anything to reduce the stalling nearing being in the money.

Well, Maila (my girlfriend), I guess this is it…

No-one here is surprised that Justin absolutely slayed our 15 Bigs, after all, he’s a WSOP bracelet winner, and has won over $1.79 million in events sold on PokerStake alone. With 15 cashes in events listed on PokerStake so far, including a biggest win worth $690,000, Justin’s action regularly sells out quickly. Next time he sells action, get involved via his official PokerStake staking page here.

We’re off to watch Justin’s favorite series Mr Nobody. After Justin’s recent exploits in the game of poker, no title could be further from the truth about one of poker’s brightest stars.
