Shail Takes a Hit

A player opened to 1,900 in middle position, Michael Shail called, and the flop came {8-Hearts}{6-Spades}{q-Spades}. The player continued for 3,200, and Shail called.

The turn was the {9-Clubs}, and the raiser fired a second bullet worth 6,100. Shail called. The river was another nine - the {9-Hearts} - and the player led for a third and final time. The bet was 11,100, and after a moment for thought, Shail called.

The player turned over {9-Diamonds}{7-Spades} for trip nines, and a disgruntled Shail showed, {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}.

"Runner-runner, eh?" he asked.

Shail took a hit, and is now down to around 167,000 chips.
