Shuts Takes Down Big Pot Without Showdown
Hand 1
Fabian Geisel raised and found a single caller in Sam Greenwood out of the blinds. Both checked the 
flop and Greenwood then check-called the 
turn. After the 
river, Greenwood checked and Geisel bet 45,000. Greenwood check-raised the pot and Geisel folded with less than 10 big blinds behind.
Hand 2
The last hand of the level then turned into an endurance challenge. Maksim Shuts had raised to 20,000 and Greenwood as well as Daniel Geeng called out of the blinds. The flop of 
saw checks all around and the 
turn was checked to Shuts, who bet 50,000. Both Greenwood and Geeng called to then see the 
appear on the river.
Greenwood and Geeng checked, and Shuts made it 140,000 to go with around 150,000 behind. Greenwood quickly folded, but Geeng spent around seven minutes in the think tank before eventually folding.
"Would you have called if I shove?" he asked and Shuts simply replied "I worried a lot, because you took so much time."
