Big Slick for Shakerchi

Level 1 : 1,000/2,000, 250 ante

Talal "raidalot" Shakerchi opened for 5,360 from the small blind before he called a three-bet to 15,900 by Ole "wizowizo" Schemion in the big blind.

Shakerchi check-called for 10,000 the {2-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} flop before both players checked the {a-Hearts} turn. Shakerchi bet 35,209 on the {3-Diamonds} river and Schemion called.

Shakerchi showed {a-Clubs}{k-Spades} for top pair top kicker, which was good enough to win the hand after Schemion mucked his cards.

The $100 million guaranteed World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) progressed to it's third day at PokerStars.

Some of the biggest names in poker will be in action today as the WCOOP-14-H: $10,300 NLHE [8-Max, High Roller] features the largest buy-in thus far in the festival.

The two-day event guarantees at least a $1 million prize and comes on the heads of another big buy-in event just completing with Brazil's Pedro "pvigar" Garagnani defeating Peru's Diego "Die Ventura" Ventura heads-up in the WCOOP-04-H: $5,200 NLHE High Roller for $195,690.

The High Roller is a deep-stacked affair with all players beginning with 250,000 in chips. The blinds will increase every 15 minutes during the first four levels before the action becomes deeper with 20-minute blind levels the rest of the way on Day 1. Any player can re-enter two times during the late registration period which last is available for the first 5 hours of play.

Day 1 of this event will play down until the action is down to just a final table of nine players. Those advancing to the final table will then resume their battle until a winner is declared on Wednesday, Aug 25 at 5:05 GMT.

The PokerNews live reporting team will be bringing all of the updates throughout this event so stay tuned.
