Pillai Has the Blades

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Shankar Pillai opened for 18,000 in middle position and called the three-bet shove of Jordan Siegel, who had about 100,000 on his left. Pillai had the goods with {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds} and Siegel was left shrugging in frustration and showing down {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}. The board ran out {10-Hearts}{5-Spades}{7-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{7-Spades} and Pillai added to an already mountainous stack.
