{7-Hearts}

and both players checked. The turn was the {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

and Shak led out for 25,000 with Seidel making the call.

The river was the {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

and Shak moved all in, covering Seidel. "Do you want me in the hand?" questioned Seidel as he was forced to use one of his time breaker buttons for an extra 30 seconds of thought. In the end he made the fold and Shak flashed the {6-Spades}

{6-Spades}

, slowly followed by the {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

for the bottom end of the straight.

Shak is up to 330,000 with Seidel back to 122,000.
