Shih Fades Flush to Carve From Big Stack

Jeff McMillan

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Action came in on the flop with the board reading 4♦3♠2♦. The pot had around 103,000 in it. From the hijack, Victor Shih bet 33,000.

Main Event chip leader Anthony Marsico was on the button and took a long time before putting forward a full stack of greens to force Shih to decide for all of it.

Shih studied the table and looked around eyes fluttering while thinking. After about two minutes he called.

Victor Shih: Q♠Q♣ All in
Anthony Marsico: Q♦10♦

Marsico had the flush draw and Shih threw up his arms in acceptance that his fate now rested in the hands of the poker gods.

The turn was the A♥ and the river was the 2♥ to blank out for Marsico and give Shih a big double as he pumped his fist in relief.
