Watson Takes from Shashkov

Level 4 : 150/300, 50 ante

On the three-way flop of {8-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{2-Hearts}, the action checked to Vladimar Shashkov and he bet 2,500. Only Alex Watson in the small blind called and the {2-Clubs} fell on the turn. Both players checked and Watson eventually bet the {9-Spades} river for 2,500. Shashkov said just one word: "Straight?" before taking one minute of consideration.

Once Shashkov called, Watson rolled over {J-Hearts}{8-Clubs} for a pair of eights and Shashkov mucked.
