Shak Feels The Dong

Shak Left Short

Dan Shak limped from middle position and then called a 2,700-chip raise from Jonathan "xMONSTERxDONGx" Karamalikis out of the cutoff.

Both players checked the flop of {q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{5-Diamonds} and when the {9-Clubs} landed on the turn Shak checked to Karamalikis who led for 2,500. Shak quickly called and when the {7-Clubs} peeled on the turn threw out a 2,500 bet of his own. Karamalikis raised to 10,000 which was followed by Shak moving in for his last 18,000.

Karamalikis instantly called tabling {7-Hearts}{7-Spades} for a full house as Shak mucked his cards uttering that he had pocket eights. As Shak looked down at the few thousand he had remaining, Karamalikis raked in the pot sending him to over 50,000 and is starting to snap on the heels of Nik Lackovic.
