Up and Down for Shaban

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Arlie Shaban
Arlie Shaban

Arlie Shaban opened to 2,100 in middle position and Oliver Weis defended from the big blind. The flop came {j-Hearts}{8-Spades}{3-Clubs} and Weis check-called a bet from Shaban.

The turn was the {2-Spades} and both players checked to the {10-Clubs} on the river. Weis led out with a bet of 2,600 on the river and Shaban quickly called. Weis knuckled the table and Shaban tabled {q-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for the winner.

On the next hand, Shaban raised to 2,100 again and Ante Jukic re-raised to 5,500 in the cutoff. Shaban called and they went heads-up to a flop of {a-Clubs}{9-Spades}{2-Spades}.

Shaban check-called bets of 2,700 on the flop and then 6,700 on the {8-Clubs} turn. The river was the {q-Diamonds} and both players tapped the table. Shaban showed {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} but Jukic held {a-Spades}{k-Clubs} for the better kicker.
