Kurganov Pushes Out Shakerchi

Level 2 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

We'd missed the start of the preflop action but had seen Talal Shakerchi (button) make what looked to be a three-bet to 14,000 over the top of Igor Kurganov (cutoff). The latter replied with a four-bet to 25,500 and Shakerchi made the call to see an {A-Spades}{4-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop.

Kurganov fired 18,000 and Shakerchi made the call. The turn was the {5-Spades} - this time Kurganov bet 31,000 and Shakerchi folded almost instantly.
