Hand #34 - Rep Porter

John Conkright has the button in Seat 2. Everyone folds to Rep Porter in the small blind, who raises to 36,000. Anatoly Shilyuk makes the call from the big blind.

The flop is {Q-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}. Porter checks as first to act, and Shilyuk checks behind. The {5-Spades} hits the turn. Porter now bets 46,000. Shilyuk deliberates briefly before calling. On a river of {Q-Diamonds}, Porter bets 68,000. Shilyuk goes into the tank. He cuts 68,000 off of his stack and counts how much he would have left if he loses this pot. He glances at Porter, who is eyeing him suspiciously. Finally, after two minutes, Shilyuk folds.
