Kroesen Sends Shanahan Home

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Ricky Kroesen started the day with just 6,875 in chips - one of the smallest stacks in the room. Now Kroesen is on over 40,000 and plenty of those chips were recently added to his stack when he sent Andrew Shanahan home.

We arrived at the action with a {k-Clubs}{3-Spades}{9-Clubs} flop on the felt and with Shanahan first to act and moving all in for 7,500. Kroesen then jammed his 25,900 in the middle and it was on the one remaining player from the button. He folded and Shanahan was at risk.

"Flush draw," said Kroesen, tabling his {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}.

"Oh i'm in front," replied Shanahan as he turned over {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}.

"No i'm not," added Shanahan when the dealer turned over a {2-Clubs} on the turn to give Kroesen the flush.

The {k-Spades} river was of no consequence to the hand and with that another player was eliminated.
