Shylko Nearly Risks It All, Leaves Liperis Short
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Picking up the action on the turn, Aliaksandr Shylko and Yiannis Liperis were involved in a hand with a little less than 30,000 in the middle. The board read 7♠6♦5♦4♣ and Shylko led out with a bet of 7,000 from the big blind. Liperis raised to 27,000 and Shylko clicked it back to 64,000 which Liperis called.
The 6♠ paired the board on the river and Shylko pushed out a bet of 90,500, leaving just a single big blind behind. Liperis dipped into the tank and eventually, the clock was called. As time was running out, Liperis stuck in a call and Shylko turned over 9♣8♥ for the nut straight to scoop the pot.
