Amundsgard Sends Shak Packing

Chad Holloway

Level 4

Pot-Limit Omaha

We saw Dan Shak packing up his things, which tends to be a sign indicative of elimination. Sure enough, a quick check at the table confirmed that he had been eliminated in the last hand of pot-limit Omaha.

As Dylan Linde explained, Sergey Rybachenko raised under the gun and Ola "Odd_Oddsen" Amundsgard called from the button. Shak then potted from the big blind, Rybachenko called, and Amundsgard repotted. Shak called all in, Rybachenko made the call, and the flop came out . Rybachenko checked and then folded to a bet from Amundsgard.

Both Shak and Amundsgard had aces preflop, but the latter was fortunate enough to flop trips. Neither the turn nor river had a bearing on the hand, and Shak became the third player to fall here in Event #46: $50,000 Poker Players' Championship.
