Shkolnik Scoops Healthy Pot

Level 5 : Limits 600/1,200, 0 ante

A total of five players threw in 2,400 each preflop after a flurry of raises went around the table.

The flop came 38J. Newly minted WSOP bracelet holder Cristian Gutierrez checked from the big blind before Edward Siegel bet from the under-the-gun position.

Brian Margettes called from late position before Seven Shkolnik raised from the cutoff. Jason Bawadi and Cristian Gutierrez folded. Siegel and Marettes called.

Siegel and Margettes checked the 2 turn before Shkolnik committed his last 1,100 into the pot. Siegel called to put Shkolnik at risk, and Margettes folded.

Steven Shkolnik: KJAll in
Edward Siegel: AK

The 10 river peeled off to award Shkolnik the pot.
