Paul Back Above Starting Stack

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Shajan Paul
Shajan Paul

Shajan Paul raised to 800 in the hijack, the player in the cutoff flatted, and Zachariah Kates three-bet to 2,200 on the button. Paul and the cutoff both came along for the ride.

The flop of 74Q checked through to the K turn. Paul checked, the cutoff bet 4,000, Kates called, as did Paul.

The river brought the 2, Paul checked and the cutoff moved all in for 7,400, putting himself at risk. Kates folded and Paul made the call.

The cutoff tabled 97 for a missed flush draw and the pot was pushed to Paul after he turned over AK for a pair of kings.
