Hands 54-58: Small Blind Battle Between the Big Stacks

Level 32 : 80,000/160,000, 20,000 ante

Hand #54: Denys Shafikov in the cutoff with {Q-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} raised it to 320,000. John Juanda called from the big blind with {K-Hearts}{3-Hearts}. Juanda checked blind and the flop came {6-Clubs}{4-Spades}{10-Hearts}. Shafikov bet out 315,000 with his second pair and Juanda folded. "Give the man his money" Juanda quoted Rounders.

Hand #55: Juanda in the small blind woke up with {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts} and made it 350,000. "Do you got any idea how much you're playing?" Jensen asked. Jensen in the big blind had {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} and he called when he heard Juanda was playing about 8 million.

The flop came {K-Spades}{4-Hearts}{Q-Spades} and Juanda and Jensen both checked. The {3-Hearts} on the turn gave Juanda a flush draw on top of his gut shot and live outs but again both players checked. The {5-Clubs} hit the river and Juanda checked. Jensen thought about it for a bit before checking back. Juanda showed his missed ace-jack and Jensen picked it up with his nines. "I'm glad to lose a small pot there!" Juanda said with a smile and they continued to discuss the hand which could've gone different easily.

Hand #56: Juanda with {10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} on the button raised to 320,000 and both blinds folded. Blinds and antes for Juanda.

Hand #57: Warburton with {A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} opened and Shafikov called with {A-Spades}{2-Diamonds} from the big blind. Both players checked the {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{A-Clubs} and the {8-Clubs} hit the turn and again both players checked. The {3-Hearts} hit the river and Shafikov bet 430,000 into the 850,000 pot. Warburton called instantly and picked up the chips after showing down the better kicker.

Hand #58: Juanda found another big hand, this time he had {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} and he made it 320,000. Action folded and so again raise and take it for Juanda.
