Shak Out Shy of Money

On a flop of {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{10-Clubs}, Robert McLaughlin checked, Beth Shak checked, and Paul Spitzberg bet 8,000. McLaughlin folded, and Shak asked how many were left before the bubble burst. Two, came the reply. She called the bet, roughly half her stack.

The turn came the {7-Hearts}, Shak pushed all in, and Spitzberg called. Shak showed {10-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for the heart flush, and Spitzberg {A-Spades}{J-Clubs} for top two. The {J-Spades} came on the river, giving Spitzberg the boat and eliminating Shak just shy of the money.

Now we are playing hand for hand until the bubble bursts.
