Kelopuro Shoves On Shak

From under the gun plus one, Dan Shak raised to 2,200. Sami Kelopuro three-bet to 5,200 from middle position and action folded back around to Shak. He four-bet and made it 17,200 to go. After some tanking, Kelopuro made the call.

The flop came down jack high with two hearts — {J-Spades}{8-Hearts}{5-Hearts}. Shak fired 18,000 with a tad under 70,000 behind. Kelopuro took a couple minutes to think things through and then raised all in. Shak requested a count and the dealer broke it down to 71,600 — a large portion of Shak's stack. Shak tanked for a couple minutes, but in the end folded his hand and Kelopuro won the pot.
