Shalgi Gets Unlucky in Big Pot

Level 2 : 100/200, 200 ante

Joseph Shalgi got off to a hot start to begin Day 1h as he was already up to 80,000 chips in the early going. Vladimir Tamaskovic opened to 800 and Shalgi three-bet to 2,000 on his left. Tamaskovic stuck in a four-bet to 6,000 and Shalgi five-bet shoved all in. Tamaskovic quickly called off his stack of 26,000 and the cards were tabled.

Vladimir Tamaskovic: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}
