Shirey Gets a Knockout

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Philip Shirey
Philip Shirey

A player from early position raised to 1,000, before a player in the hijack three-bet all in for 6,500. The cutoff and the big blind Philip Shirey called, and the player in early position folded, leaving three players in the pot with one all in.

The flop came K2J and both players checked.

After the K on the turn, Shirey bet out 6,000, which got the player in the cutoff to fold, leaving him heads up with the player all in.

Hijack: 99 All in
Philip Shirey: AJ

Shirey had the best hand with his pair of jacks and kings. After the river was the 8 his jacks and kings were still best, and he eliminated the player from the tournament.
