Shaw Smacks the River to Crack Priestley's Aces
Level 19
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Carl Shaw raised to 18,000 in the hijack and Sinead Priestley then moved all in for 160,000 on the button. "This is a close one," Shaw said as he tanked for a moment before calling.
Sinead Priestley: A♣A♠
Carl Shaw: K♣Q♣
The flop came 10♠10♦8♣, while Priestley remained in front on the 9♠ turn but Shaw picked up a straight draw. The river came the J♣.
"No. Happens every time. So annoying," Priestley said, still smiling despite Shaw completing his straight to send her to the rail. She stopped to take a picture of the board before heading for the rail.
