Shylkou Chips Up Against Chip Leader

Frank Visser

Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Stanislau Shylkou in the small blind and Rodrigo Selouan in the cutoff had gathered a pot of 48,000 preflop when they both checked the 8♦K♠7♦ flop.

Shylkou then bet 12,000 on the 6♥ turn, which Selouan raised to 45,000. Shylkou called, after which the J♣ river was quickly checked to showdown.

Shylkou tabled A♦K♥ for top pair, and Selouan showed K♣Q♥ before it disappeared into the muck.
