Shakerchi Catches Lucky Break and Doubles Up
Level 10
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 625 ante
Georgi "milennial" Sandev raised to 11,100 from the hijack before Talal "raidalot" Shakerchi went all-in from the button for 140,179. The action folded back to Sandev, who made a call with the covering stack.
Talal "raidalot" Shakerchi: 6♠6♦
Georgi "milennial" Sandev: 10♦10♣
It was looking like Shakerchi was heading towards his second bullet, but the Q♦6♣K♣ saw him flop a set and take a massive lead in the pot. The 8♦ turn did not bring any sweat and the Q♠ river upgraded the British high-stakes regular to a full house, seeing him above starting stack for the first time since the start of the Main Event.
