Shakerchi Catches Lucky Break and Doubles Up

Frank Visser

Level 10 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 625 ante

Georgi "milennial" Sandev raised to 11,100 from the hijack before Talal "raidalot" Shakerchi went all-in from the button for 140,179. The action folded back to Sandev, who made a call with the covering stack.

Talal "raidalot" Shakerchi: 6?6?
Georgi "milennial" Sandev: 10?10?

It was looking like Shakerchi was heading towards his second bullet, but the Q?6?K? saw him flop a set and take a massive lead in the pot. The 8? turn did not bring any sweat and the Q? river upgraded the British high-stakes regular to a full house, seeing him above starting stack for the first time since the start of the Main Event.
