Shak is Rolling Big Time

Dan Shak just won a big pot when he got all in when he got all in preflop with a player {K-?} {K-?} versus {9-?} {8-?}. Shak held the kings.

The kings would hold up, despite the player flopping a pair and turning a straight draw.

A few hands later Shak flopped the nut straight on a {10-?} {9-?} {8-?} board holding {Q-Diamonds} {J-Spades}. His opponent, Victor Ramdin, held {7-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} and another player held {10-Spades} {10-Clubs}... what a flop! All three players got all in and Shak needed to dodge a board pair to win the hand.

The turn came a {2-?} and the river a {Q-?} to give Shak the win. Ramdin and the other player were both eliminated on the hand.

Shak now has over 100,000.
