Shifrel Takes Huge Pot to Triple Up

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The board was showing 109273 and all of the money went in on the flop with Shifrel at risk for 48,200. Shifrel tabled 22 for a flopped set of deuces which cracked the cutoff's AA and the small blind missed their open-ender with QJ.

The cutoff received a small side-pot, while the small blind's stack was decimated.
