Shakerchi Scores a Double Through Ashton

Level 25

No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw

Down to 775,000, Talal Shakerchi pushed all-in with the Ax9x8x8x2x from under the gun and it folded to James Obst in the big blind. Obst had a sub par QxJxJx5x3x and reluctantly folded.

Kristopher Tong then raised to 375,000 with the Kx9x8x3x2x and earned folds all around.

Shakerchi jammed the 10x9x9x4x2x next for the same amount and Matthew Ashton asked for a count with the JxJx8x5x3x. Ashton called drew two while Shakerchi only tossed one of the nines.

Shakerchi paired his four but Ashton received a queen and paired the eight for Shakerchi to double.
