Kostyniuk Cracks Sheikhan's Set
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Four players saw a flop of A♣6♣3♣ and Jeffrey Kostyniuk checked to Shawn Sheikhan who fired a bet of 2,200. Both the players in the middle got out of the way and Krostyniuk made the call.
The 8♦ hit the turn and Kostyniuk check-called a bet of 3,200.
On the K♣ river, both players tapped the table. Kostyniuk wasted no time showing his A♦J♣, rivering a flush. Sheikhan sighed as he cried, "That's so F***ing sick," and showed 8♣8♠ for a set of eights on the turn that rivered a smaller flush.
