Peters Doubles Through Young, Shak is Sick

Level 14 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
David Peters
David Peters

David Peters went all in from early position for 180,000. Justin Young went all behind him from late position for about 700,000. Action folded to Dan Shak from the big blind who had a decision with about 340,000 chips remaining.

"Oh baby," as Shak sat up in his chair. After thinking about 20 seconds, though, he folded and showed {a-}{j-}. "Don't make me sick," as he waited to see the flop.

Justin Young: {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}
David Peters: {a-Spades}{5-Spades}

The board ran out ace-high and Peters won the pot that could have gone Shak's way.

"At least it went to someone who needs it," joked Young.

Shak went on to bust a few hands later.

Level 14 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Alex Foxen

Josh Arieh opened to 75,000 in middle position and Michael Moncek made the call in late position. Alex Foxen put in the three-bet from the small blind to 180,000.

Arieh folded, but when it came back around to Moncek, he decided to go all in for 575,000. Foxen immediately called.

"Whoops," said Moncek. "You have a pair?" Foxen said he did. "It doesn't matter unless I hit my set.

Players had to wait to reveal their hands given they were in hand-for-hand play. Once they did, Moncek saw what he had to beat.

Michael Moncek: {3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}
Alex Foxen: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}

The board ran out clean for Foxen who sent Arieh home two shy from the money.
