Shlez Finds the Nuts on the River
Level 32
: Limits 150,000/300,000, 0 ante
Vadim Shlez raised from the button holding 10♥9♥ before facing a three-bet from Kerry Welsh in the small blind. Shlez called as the players headed to a J♦3♦8♠ flop.
Welsh decided to bet into Shlez and was met with a quick call before the dealer put out the 6♣ on the turn.
Welsh opted to lead with a bet again and again, Shlez tossed in a call to see the Q♦ hit the river.
Welsh checked to Shlez who tossed out a bet. Welsh called as Shlez quickly turned his cards up, revealing the nuts.
Upon seeing the bad news, Welsh dejectedly said, "Jesus Christ!" as Shlez dragged yet another pot as Welsh is left with just over one big bet.
