Sheiky Runs Down Opponent

Sheiky Wields The Big Stack
Sheiky Wields The Big Stack
Shawn Sheikhan opened with a raise from middle position before Chris Bjorin reraised from the cutoff for all of his chips. "Sheiky" made the call with {A-Hearts}{6-Spades} but found himself dominated by the {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} of Bjorin.

However the board ran out {5-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} to give "Skeiky" a running straight to take down the pot and eliminate Bjorin.
