Yuri Really Got Me

Barry Shulman opened preflop on the button to 4,000 only for Yury Esaulov to make it about 11,000 from the big blind, Shulman instantly called.

The flop was {Q-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} and Esaulov fired out 14,300. Shulman, his hands belying a hidden shakiness, grabbed a handful of yellow 5k chips and made it 35,000.

Esaulov thought for half a minute before moving in and Shulman called the extra 40,000 or so with {J-Hearts} {9-Hearts} but needed to hit against Esaulov's {A-Spades} {A-Clubs}. The {7-Clubs} turn and {2-Spades} were, however, the biggest bricks he could find and Esaulov doubled up to about 180,000. Shulman was left with just 35,000.
