Shakerchi Shoves on Juen

Level 12 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Talal Shakerchi is not a man who is afraid to put his chips into the middle of the felt as Alban Juen has just discovered.

Juen led for 8,000 on the {6-Spades}{9-Spades}{9-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} board where there was already around 27,000 chips in the middle. Shakerchi then moved all in for a total of 44,700 from late position and Juen smiled, then flicked his cards back to the dealer, leaving Shakerchi to win the pot.

Shakerchi is a highly successful hedge fund manager in London, UK and like many rich businessmen, loves to play poker around the world.
