Shakerchi Crushing the Bubble

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Talal Shakerchi has more than doubled on the bubble, and is currently flirting with one million chips.

In one hand, he, Paul Volpe, and Philipp Gruissem saw a flop and turn of {4-Hearts}{j-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}. Gruissem checked, Volpe fired 82,000, and both Shakerchi and Gruissem called.

The {5-Spades} completed the board, all three players checked, and Shakerchi showed {j-Clubs}{10-Spades}. It was good.

A few hand later, Shakerchi opened to 20,000 from middle position. Fabian Quoss called on his direct left, and JC Alvarado and Scott Seiver called out of the blinds. The flop fell {j-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Spades}, and the action checked to Shakerchi, who continued for 45,000. Only Quoss called.

The turn was the {10-Spades}, Shakerchi led out for 75,000, and Quoss called.

The river was the {7-Diamonds}, and Shakerchi led out again - this time for 110,000. Quoss tank-folded, and Shakerchi pulled in the pot.
