Wantman Left With Short Stack After River Call

Level 34 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 0 ante

Matthew Wantman raised on the button to 50,000 and Mike Shi called.

Shi check-called a 40,000 bet from Wantman on the Q108 flop.

The two checked on the 3 turn. When the K fell on the river, Shi bet 120,000 and Wantman called. Shi flipped over the K9 for a rivered top pair and it was good enough to win him this pot. Wantman is now left fighting for his tournament life.
