Sheyn On

Raymond Stuwe raised under the gun and it folded right around to Avi Mukherjee in the small blind, who reraised with just 1,500 behind. Big blind Ilya Sheyn four-bet and Stuwe called; Mukherjee stuck his last in by way of an almost-cap.

"You're not gonna fold, are you?" joked Stuwe.

"No I am not going to fold," replied Sheyn humorlessly.

Both players called, and they saw a flop.

Flop: {a-Clubs}{3-Spades}{5-Hearts}

Sheyn bet out and Stuwe gave it up. Sheyn and Mukherjee turned their cards over.

Sheyn: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Mukherjee: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

Turn: {j-Clubs}

River: {4-Diamonds}

The turn and river both blanked out for Sheyn, despite him ordering, "Queen!" of the deck on both streets, and Mukherjee tripled up to 15,000 or so as Stuwe told the table, "The ace saved me!"

Sheyn is in no trouble though - he's still at 70,000.
