Ashton Takes From Alaei; Shakerchi Earns River Value
Level 18
Limit Hold'em
Daniel Alaei raised and was three-bet by Matthew Ashton, which Alaei called. On the 7♥6♦4♣ flop, Ashton continued and earned a call from Alaei. The 8♠ turn was checked and Ashton then checked the Q♦ on the river, too. Alaei bet only to then fold to a check-raise.
Up next, Talal Shakerchi was the next one to check-raise the J♥7♦5♦9♠5♣ river and James Obst reluctantly paid it off. Shakerchi revealed his 5♥2♥ for trips fives and won the pot.
