Shankam Beneficiary of Massive Cooler
Level 13
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
A pot was brewing in a blind-on-blind battle between Srivatsa "Victor" Shankam from the small blind and the big blind.
With the completed board reading J♣3♦2♠K♣A♠, Shankam led with a bet before his opponent slid a stack of red 5,000 chips forward. Shankam paused before he announced all-in for 92,000, just slightly more than the amount of the raise. His opponent scoffed as he put in the rest to call.
Srivatsa "Victor" Shankam: Q♦10♥ 
Big Blind: 5♣4♠
It was the most brutal of rivers as both open-ended straight draws completed on the ace. Shankam's broadway coolered his opponent's wheel as he dragged a pivotal pot and the tournament combines at its final three tables.
