Tsoukernik Getting Shippy

Level 2 : 150/300, 0 ante

Down to about 10 big blinds, Leon Tsoukernik has no choice but to start getting his stack in. He just limped early and saw a {9-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{8-Hearts} flop against both blinds for the minimum. Tsoukernik shoved all in for 3,175 when they both checked, and he scooped up the pot after two quick folds.

A couple of hands later, he lost some back when he called a preflop raise to 600 in the big blind. The board ran out {10-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{q-Spades}{8-Hearts}{6-Clubs} and Tsoukernik checked it down with his opponent.

"Board," he announced on the river.

His opponent tabled {a-Hearts}{k-Spades} and took the pot.
