Shawn Keller Makes the Right Choice

After seeing a flop of {J-Spades}{4-Spades}{2-Clubs}, Phil Laak bet 5,000 and Shawn Keller made the call. The turn was the {8-Diamonds} and when Laak checked, Keller bet 5,000. Laak check-raised to 11,500, and as Keller thought the situation through Laak said, "I'll show if you show."

Keller folded and turned over {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}, and Laak turned over {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} for the turned set.
