Shakerchi's Big Turn Bet Gets Through

Level 10 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Colby Covington limped in, and Talal Shakerchi raised to 15,000 in the cutoff. Nino Pansier called from the small blind, and Covington came along as well.

On the KJ5 flop, Pansier led out for 27,000. Covington folded, but Shakerchi made a pot-sized raise. The amount was 134,000. Pansier paused for a moment, before making the call.

The 7 fell on the turn, and Pansier checked. Shakerchi now fired out a chunky bet of 300,000. Pansier thought, and then folded.

After the hand, Pansier revealed he didn't have a draw. "Did I have little hope or no hope?", he asked Shakerchi. "No hope", Shakerchi stated.

Shakerchi is likely one of the largest stacks in the room as play winds down here on Day 1.
