Shak, Rattled, Rolls

Explosive, Dan-Shak-eliminating action on the turn just now, where a pot of 35k grew to over 400k and sent Shak to the rail and his chips to Bojan Gledovic. The board: {6-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} {2-Hearts}, with the Deuce the latest arrival, and Shak checked out of the big blind to the preflop raiser.

30k was the bet from Gledovic. Shak brought forward his whole red stacks now, 115k in total, and pushed it forward. The dealer cut it down into neat piles, and the action was back on Gledovic. Who moved in. Some arm-crossing, chair swivelling, and finally, standing up, Shak called.

Gledovic showed {6-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} for the flopped set and Shak announced quietly, "I'm drawing dead." The dealer hesitated, and Shak kept his hand face down, repeating calmly, "Drawing dead." The floor man apologetically informed them both that he still really had to turn his hand face up, so face up it went: {Q-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}. He was indeed drawing dead, and the {4-Diamonds} river was irrelevant; he was already walking away.
