Shkolnik Hits Set of Aces Over Set of Kings

Level 22 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Set of Aces over Set of Kings
Set of Aces over Set of Kings

There was a reaction at a table as the last hand before dinner break was happening.

The flop read {8-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{k-Hearts}. Nick Shkolnik made a big bet and Genc Govori moved all in from the button, Shkolnik called.

It was terrible luck for Shkolnik as he held the {a-Spades}{a-Hearts} but it was no good against the {k-}{k-} set of Govori.

The turn was the {10-Spades} but it was the river that caused the reaction as the {a-Diamonds} binked off to send Govori to the rail while giving Shkolnik a massive pot right.

Christopher Doan's chip stack has become a black hole in which all chips seems to be flooding towards.

He was spotted taking out John Montgomery as his [qxqx[ was showing on a board of {9-}{8-}{5-}{3-}{q-}, rivering a set against the {a-}{10-} of Montgomery who was standing up and walking towards the payout desk.

Doan has assembled close to 200 big blinds.

There was a large amount of chips already in the middle on a flop that read {5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}. The pot was about 500,000 and Jessica Plusko moved all in for 620,000 from the big blind.

Michael Rossitto was on the button and had a big decision to face. He looked as Plusko trying to get any indication before eventually calling.

Plusko tabled the goods with the {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} while Rossitto had {8-}{8-}.

The turn was the {2-Spades} and the river was the {6-Spades} to give Plusko the massive pot.
