Shin Chips Up With Aces
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Byungeun Shin made the minimum raise to 100,000 in the hijack. It folded to Mark Shutley in the big blind, who tossed in defending chips.
Shutley checked the 9♦8♦K♠ flop over to Shin, who bet 110,000. Shutley quickly called to the 10♣ turn before he checked to Shin again.
Shin sized up to 350,000, about a third of his remaining chips. Shutley called, and the 6♥ river completed the board. Both players decided to check, and Shin's A♥A♦ bested Shutley's J♠8♠ at showdown.
