Lehr Doubles Through Shakerchi
Level 11
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Keith Lehr was under the gun and he opened with an all in raise to 141,000. Action folded over to Talal Shakerchi who flatted from middle position. The rest of the table folded and the hands were exposed.
Lehr: 
Shakerchi: 
The dealer fanned a 
flop which kept Shakerchi's sevens out in front. That all changed in a flash, however, after the 
rolled off on the turn. Suddenly it was Shakerchi who needed to improve in order to win the hand. He was unable to do so with the 
on the river and Lehr secured himself a double up. He now has about 295,000 while Shakerchi has dropped to 740,000.
