Straight Flush For Shaban

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Arlie Shaban
Arlie Shaban

Arlie Shaban had his last 22,200 in from the big blind and was at risk against a player in middle position.

Arlie Shaban: {k-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Opponent: {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

The {9-Spades}{4-Clubs}{q-Spades} flop gave both players a gutshot, and Shaban hit his on the {10-Spades} turn. His opponent needed a jack to chop the pot, but the {k-Spades} river instead gave Shaban a king-high straight flush!

"Lemme take a picture!" Shaban said, snapping a photo of the board with his phone before raking in the double.

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Ashley Sleeth
Ashley Sleeth

"You're gonna wanna get this one," Jon Turner said, gesturing at a pot developing between Jesse Sylvia and his fiancee Ashley Sleeth.

A pot of already 30,000 had been built up, and Sylvia checked a {6-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} board from middle position to Sleeth, who jammed for 13,900. Sylvia tanked for a minute then called, and Sleeth tabled {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}. Sylvia showed his {5-Spades}{5-Hearts} and said, "Did you think I was slowrolling? That would've been awesome," with a grin.

"You called me with that, babe? No respect!" Sleeth said, smiling as she scooped in the big double.

Pal Grabs Another Bounty

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

A player jammed for 19,500 from the button, and Carlos Pal put him at risk in the small blind with a call.

Opponent: {k-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Carlos Pal: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

Pal fell well behind on the {q-Clubs}{8-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop, and the {a-Hearts} turn left Pal looking a two-outer to earn the bounty. The {9-Spades} river gave Pal a winning set, and he claimed what looks to be his third bounty of the day with the elimination.
