Shakerchi in Freefall

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

To say it's been a rough level for Talal Shakerchi would be an understatement. The high roller began the level third in chips with 558,500, but now he's got just 63,000!

In his most recent hit, Team PokerStars Pro David Williams got his last 140,000 all in on a {j-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{10-Clubs} flop and Shakerchi called him.

Williams: {9-Spades}{8-Spades}
Shakerchi: {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}

Shakerchi was ahead with top pair, but then the dealer burned and turned the {Q-Spades}. Shakerchi made two pair, but Williams took the lead with a straight. The {9-Clubs} river failed to pair the paint, and Williams doubled through.
