Shainiuk and Nat Go To Battle
Hand #1:
Roman Shainiuk opened to 125,000 from under the gun and action folded around to Arish Nat, who remarked about Shainiuk picking on him all day as he called.
"You called him blind?" asked Paul Chai from across the table. Nat said it had been numerous times that his big blind had been raised by Shainiuk.
The flop came 
and both players checked.
"One hundred-fifty," said Nat, cutting out three stacks of T25,000 chips that were each two tall on the turn 
. Shainiuk called.
Both players checked the river 
to take the hand to showdown.
Nat tabled 
for two pair, aces and fives. Shainiuk showed 
for aces and jacks and took down the pot.
Hand #2:
On the following hand, action folded around to Nat who was now in the small blind. He raised to 120,000 into Shainiuk's big blind and received a call.
"One hundred-fifty," Nat announced again as the flop came 
. Shainiuk sat for about five seconds before folding 
face up, as if to ask Nat what else he was supposed to do with each decision.
