Daniels Shows Al-Shanti Kings
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Cody Daniels raised to 2,500 on the button and was called by Abdullah Al-Shanti in the small blind and another opponent in the big blind.
"Taking on the maniac in seat #5," Daniels said as the flop came 2♣10♠4♦. Al-Shanti then bet 2,200, the big blind folded, while Daniels called.
Al-Shanti led out for another 2,200 on the 9♦ turn and Daniels raised to 5,000. Al-Shanti called and the K♣ fell on the river.
Daniels then bet 12,000 and Al-Shanti folded this time. "Pick two," Daniels told him, allowing Al-Shanti to reveal his hand. Al-Shanti turned over two kings as Daniels had hit a set on the river.
