Zobian Straightens Out Shorr
Level 5
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Aram Zobian opened to 6,500 from the hijack, Shannon Shorr called from the cutoff, and Michael Brinkenhoff called from the big blind.
The flop came 4♦5♠7♥. Brinkenhoff checked, Zobian bet 8,500, Shorr called, and Brinkenhoff folded.
Both players checked the 9♥ turn, leading to the 5♦ river. Zobian fired a 70,000 overbet, and Shorr moved all-in for around 210,000. Zobian called, barely covering Shorr.
Shorr turned over trips with A♣5♣. Zobian showed a straight with 8♠6♠ to win the hand, while Shorr quickly reentered.
