Shak Denied a Scoop; Chops With Kerbel
Level 14
: Limits 8,000/16,000, 0 ante
Three ways to the 8♦3♦2♣ flop, Dan Shak and Christopher Stephan checked to Jay Kerbel on the button who bet and received two calls. After the Q♥ turn, only Shak check-called another bet by Kerbel while Stephan folded.
The 3♠ river saw Shak check again and he instantly called a bet by Kerbel, who revealed his A♦A♠8♥6♥ for aces up with a eight-six low. Shak had the superior low with A♥7♠5♥4♣ and missed out on a scoop with his superior low and missed full wrap.
