Shaffer on the Rise

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

With the flop showing {4-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}, Al Shaffer bet from middle position before his opponent raised to 2,000 from the button. Shaffer called.

The turn brought the {j-Diamonds} and Shaffer checked. The player on the button then moved all in for 7,050. Shaffer snap-called.

Shaffer: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{j-Clubs}

Shaffer had turned the flush and had his opponent drawing dead.

The meaningless {9-Spades} completed the board, resulting in one player exiting the tournament floor, whilst Shaffer chipped up to 32,000.
