Shak Stacks Up

Our PokerNews reporter caught the action in a battle-of-the-blinds situation between Beth Shak and the player in the big blind on a board that read {8-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}; Shak checked to her rival who bet 500, but she called before both players elected to check down the river {7-Clubs}.

"Two pair," the big blind said, but didn't show after Shak said, "I have a flush," as she turned up {Q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}.

Shak's now up to more than 35,000 after that hand.
