Shylko Vanishes in Two Hands

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Aliaksandr Shylko
Aliaksandr Shylko

On the river of a J9525, Aliaksandr Shylko pulled the trigger and all but moved all-in while keeping 400 chips behind. Brian Battistone looked him up and both cards were exposed. The KJ of Battistone won the pot as Shylko had missed the nut flush draw with AQ.

With a smirk on the face, the Belorussian was then all-in the next hand and faced a raise to 1,200 as well as the call by Nicolas Gola in the big blind. Gola check-called for 1,500 on the 877 flop before the 10 turn was checked. Gola bet the 2 river to isolate and showed his 99, which beat Shylko's K8.
