Kasputis Scores Through Shabelnyk

Jim Kasputis Jr opened the betting with a raise to 50,000 from under the gun. It folded to the ever-aggressive Valentyn Shabelnyk in the cutoff who made it 90,000 to go. Kasputis called and the two saw a flop of {3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}.

Kasputis led into the pot for 60,000 and Shabelnyk wasted no time announcing that he was all in. Kasputis called all in for about 740,000 and showed {K-Hearts}{k-Clubs}. Shabelnyk tabled {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} and was behind.

The turn was the {3-Clubs} with the {A-Clubs} completing the board. Kasputis was able to score a huge double up while bringing Shabelnyk back under two million.
