Manig Loeser Versus Dan Shak in partypoker LIVE Cash Game Hand

The most remarkable hand, starting at 14:38 in the video, starts right after Paul Newey laid down a flush on a paired board to a raise from Trickett who had top full house.

The hand in question starts with Alex Goulding straddling to £200 under the gun and Dan Shak raising 77 to £600 from the button. Small blind Berridge called with 88 and big blind Loeser called with 66. Goulding over called for £400 more with Q8 to create a £2,400 pot.

The flop came 67K, making both Shak and Loeser hit sets. Action checked to Shak who bet £2,500. Berridge folded, Loeser called, Goulder folded. With now £7,400 in the middle, the K hit the turn. Loeser, who has $7,978,557 in live cashes and plays big online as "swordfish007," check-called another overbet as Shak slid forward £8,000.

The 10 completed the board and Loeser, with £71,000 behind, checked a third time. Shak shoved for £41,400 into £23,400 and Loeser, stating "I had a really bad feeling," asked for a count. Upon finding out how much it was, he eventually released his cards into the muck, folding his full house.

The two eventually agreed to show their cards, with Shak exclaiming disbelief how Loeser folded his sixes there. The big pot went to Shak while Loeser held onto the majority of his profits in the game by laying down his massive hand.

The cash game was live reported and streamed on the mypartypokerlive.com portal (sign-up required). More videos from the event can be found on partypoker's Twitch channel. PokerNews Live Reporting from the event can be found on our live reporting portal.
