Ashton Shortens Shakerchi Again
Level 25
Talal Shakerchi: J♠6♥/Q♦9♥J♥K♦/4♦
Matthew Ashton: 7♠5♠/9♠8♣5♦J♣/7♦
James Obst: K♠2♥/3♦ - folded bring-in
After Talal Shakerchi completed James Obst's bring-in, Matthew Ashton made it two bets to go with three to a flush. Obst folded, but Shakerchi called.
On fourth street, Shakerchi check-called a bet from Ashton to see fifth street, which paired each player with Shakerchi holding the better pair of jacks.
The players checked, and on sixth Shakerchi led right out with a bet which Ashton called.
Seventh street saw Ashton improve to two pair, sevens and fives, to make the best hand and after Shakerchi checked, the 2013 PPC champ checked back to take the pot and leave Shakerchi under two million again.
