Shepherd Catches Patel Making a Big Move
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
With around 10,000 in the pot on a flop of 4♣6♠10♦, Vinubhai Patel moved all in from early position and Larry Shepherd took a minute before calling on the button.
Vinubhai Patel: J♦8♦
Larry Shepherd: A♠Q♠
Patel was able to show just jack-high, while Shepherd was ahead with his ace-high. The board ran out 3♠3♦, and Shepherd remained in the lead to secure the big pot. The stacks were counted down, and Shepherd's remaining 43,000 had Patel narrowly covered to send him to the rail.
