One For Shakerchi, One For Wang

Level 9 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

I arrived at the table to see a big pot between Talal Shakerchi and Kamer Alyanakyan in progress. The former had bet 505,000 on the river of a {2-Clubs}{3-Spades}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades}{A-Spades} board and Kamer Alyanakyan was in the tank. He was eying up the board more than his opponent and thought for a while before committing the necessary chips to the pot.

Shakerchi rolled over {8-Spades}{5-Spades} for a flush, Alyanakyan nodded and mucked.

On the very next hand Zuo Wang made it 180,000 from under-the-gun+1 and picked up calls from Talal Shakerchi (hijack), Jason Strasser (button) and Andrew Pantling (big blind). On the {10-Spades}{8-Spades}{J-Hearts} flop Pantling led for 260,000, Wang moved in for about 1,500,000 and one by one everyone folded.
