I'm All Shak Up!

It's fairly difficult to see what's happening on the feature table, but we just caught the end of a hand between Phil Ivey and Dan Shak in a large pot.

It looked as though Ivey had made a 34,000 raise on the turn of a {7-Spades} {8-Hearts} {A-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} board against Dan Shak. Shak made the call but then folded to a 25,000 bet on the {3-Clubs} river.

Stern Flushes Ferguson

Michael Sampoerna raised to 1,500 from the cutoff seat and was called by both blinds. Dani "Ansky" Stern was in the small blind and Chris "Jesus" Ferguson in the big blind.

The flop came down {K-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} {7-Hearts}. All three players checked.

The turn card was the {5-Hearts}, possibly completing some straight and flush draws. Stern fired 3,500 and Ferguson raised to 10,000. Sampoerna folded and Stern made the call.

The river was the {6-Diamonds} and both players checked. Stern showed {K-Hearts} {10-Hearts} and a king-high flush and Ferguson mucked his hand.

{A-Diamonds} {J-Clubs} {3-Diamonds}

Lindgren fired out 2,000 but Hansen raised to 5,500 making the American muck.

Two-nil to the Dane as we say in Europe.

The turn card was the {5-Spades} and both players checked.

On Your Bike

Tony G rolled into the arena on a bike with a beautiful lady riding along with him. This goes back to his famous "On your bike!" tirade against Ralph Perry back in the day.

After sitting down in his seat, Tony G looked towards Jarred "FlopNutsOnYou" Graham and said, "I'm keeping the bike waiting for you!"
