Shouldis Wins Battle of Blinds

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

Action folded to the blinds, and James Shouldis, who was in the small blind, checked his option.

The player in the big blind, however, responded by raising to 400. Shouldis flatted and the action went to the flop, which produced K44.

Shouldis checked, and the big blind bet 400, which Shouldis check-called. The turn produced 6, which Shouldis checked. The action from the flop repeated, as the big blind bet 400, and Shouldis check-called.

The river saw 9 on the board, and this time Shouldis took charge of the betting by leading out with 400. The big blind mucked his hand and the pot was awarded to Shouldis.
