Dan Shak or Phill Hellmuth?
Level 11
: 60,000/120,000, 20,000 ante
Action folded to Dan Shak and he made it 400,000 to go, a 2.5x raise, and he picked up a caller in the shape of Anatoly Gurtovoy. On the flop Shak bet 500,000 and took the pot.
"I thought it was 80,000/160,000," said Shak, explaining what for him was a larger than usual open raise. "I looked up (at the tournament clock) and saw 80/160 and thought that's what the blinds were."
"I thought you'd gone to the Phill Helmuth school of thought," joked Haralabos Voulgaris as Shak was stacking the chips.
