Shakerchi Gets Healthy Versus Ashton

Level 25
Talal Shakerchi
Talal Shakerchi

Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Talal Shakerchi raised on the button with Ax10x7x3x2x and got called by Matthew Ashton in the big blind with AxKx8x5x4x. Each player then took two cards on the first draw.

Ashton's hand became Jx8x5x4x4x, while Shakerchi's was now Qx7x5x3x2x. Ashton check-called a bet from Shakerchi and then drew two, while Shakerchi drew one.

Ashton improved to 8x5x4x4x2x, while Shakerchi now held 7x5x3x3x2x. Ashton then check-called another Shakerchi bet and they each went to the final draw to take one card.

They each made hands, but Ashton's 9x8x5x4x2x was crushed by Shakerchi's 7x6x5x3x2x. Ashton however bet and was quickly raised by Shakerchi.

Ashton made the call to see the bad news, sending a big pot to Shakerchi who is firmly back in the mix.
