Shak Falling Apart

Dan Shak is having a difficult level. He raised to 24k under the gun, and Ravi Raghavan raised to 67,000. Shak gave it up with a sigh. Next hand he was the big blind.

We missed the preflop action, but the three-way pot was already sizable when the flop came {9-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {6-Hearts}. John Franciosi in the small blind bet out 40,000. Shak raised to 110k. Kyle Zartman wasn't happy about it, but he folded. Action back on him, Franciosi moved all in. "I have to call," said Dan without a pause. Showdown time.

Franciosi: {Q-Spades} {Q-Hearts}
Shak: {A-Clubs} {9-Spades}

Shak wasn't surprised to see top pair was no good. The {4-Hearts} on the turn and {3-Clubs} on the river changed nothing, and Franciosi doubled through Shak. "Nice play, Dan," muttered Shak, who is now down to around 140,000.
