Dan Shak, from Event No. 46
Dan Shak, from Event No. 46
With a board showing {8-Spades}{4-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}, a player playing from the small blind position bet out 2,500, and Dan Shak raised to 7,500 total. His opponent pondered for a minute or so, then let it go.

Shak held up his two nines for his opponent to see before scooping the pot. "Did you pick up a diamond draw there?" he asked. "No, big pair," came the reply.

Shak has about 34,000.
