Shylko Put in Tough Spot
On a board reading Aliaksandr Shylko out of the small blind was involved in a pot with a player in the big blind. Shylko bet out 13,00 into a pot of 17,600 and his opponent, who had Shylko covered, responded by raising all in. Shylko, with roughly 18,000 behind, went into the tank. As he was thinking he apologised to the table for the length of time it was taking him to make a decision.
Eventually Shylko made the call for his tournament life and turned over for rivered trips. His opponent attempted to muck his holding but owing to the fact that Shylko had all of his chips in the middle, the dealer turned it up to reveal for the busted straight draw.
"Sorry to waste your time guys" Shylko said as he raked in his newly acquired chips. "It wasn't a waste of time, that's a real spot," the big blind player responded in a show of sportsmanship.
