Wolter Apologizes for the Nit Roll
Francis Kelly made it 8,000 from early position before Valentyn Shabelnyk three-bet to 22,000 from middle position. Jonathan Wolter cold four-bet to 50,000 from the button, which only Shabelnyk called.
Shabelnyk checked the 5♣K♣4♣ flop and Wolter bet out for 12,000. Shabelnyk check-raised to 70,000, and after a few moments, Wolter called.
The J♣ appeared on the turn and Shabelnyk led out for 25,000. Wolter decided he wanted to play for more as he raised to 55,000. Shabelnyk made the call.
A board-pairing 4♦ came on the river and Shabelnyk jammed his 188,500 into the middle. Wolter, who had only slightly more than Shabelnyk, went deep into the tank. After a few minutes of thinking, Wolter apologized if it was a "nit roll" before making the call.
Shabelnyk showed a flopped flush with Q♣10♣, but was eliminated by Wolter who held A♣K♥ for the ace-high flush.
