Shephard Outkicks Willman

Erick Torres

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

The pot had about 13,000 in it when this hand was picked up on the flop of 4♦K♠8♦.

Jack Willman bet 6,000 from early position and was called by Hank Shephard from the next seat over.

Both players chose to check the 10♥ turn before the A♠ river.

Willman checked again, but this time Shephard bet 6,000. Willman put in the call as they went to a showdown.

Shephard showed A♦Q♣, which was good, as Willman revealed he had kicker problems with A♣J♦.
