There's No Stopping Berisha
Level 29
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Marko Bajic opened jammed for 740,000 from under the gun and was called by by Xhavit Berisha from the big blind.
Marko Bajic: Q♥J♥
Xhavit Berisha: 9♥9♦
Berisha made a set on the K♥9♠5♦ flop. Bajic was unable to hit his gutshot straight draw as the board completed with the 8♣6♠
The following hand, Berisha jammed from the small blind and Shawn Stroke snap-called from the big blind for his last 1,000,000.
Shawn Stroke: A♣K♥
Xhavit Berisha: A♥4♣
Berisha was dominated but picked a wheel draw on the J♦5♥2♣ flop. The 3♣ turn completed his straight draw.
"Oh, come on!" shouted Stroke as he saw his opponent seal the checkmark. The Q♣ river completed the board and a dejected Stroke left the tournament floor.
