Shovkovyi Spikes King on the River in Massive Pot
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
After a preflop betting war, James Galloway, Vladyslav Shovkovyi, and another player got all the chips into the middle in a massive pot, with Galloway covering.
Player 1: A?J?
Vladyslav Shovkovyi: A?K?
James Galloway: 10?10?
The flop of J?8?A? was huge for Player 1 as he made top two-pair, and the turn was a blank 3?, but the river was dastardly as it came the K? to give the win to Shovkovyi with a bigger two-pair.
"WHHHAAAaaahhh!" Jessica Richards provided sound effects as the monster pot was pushed over to Shovkovyi while Player 1 exited and Galloway had a chunk taken from him.
