Shack Turns A Miracle

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Andrew Shack opened for 3,400 under the gun and Andrea Benelli three-bet to 9,000 from late position. Action folded back to Shack who called.

The flop fell {q-Clubs}{k-Spades}{a-Spades} and Shack instantly jammed his remaining stack of 111,000 in the middle and was snapped off by Benelli.

Andrew Shack: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Andrea Benelli: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

Both players hit the flop extremely well but the case king gave Benelli a set while Shack was behind with top-two pair until the dealer peeled off the {a-Clubs} on the turn giving both players a full house but Shack held the better hand with aces full.

The dealer would throw down the meaningless {7-Hearts} on the river and Shack raked in the pot.
