Shak Spikes the Duece

Action folded around to Sarah Pluard and she shoved her last few remaining chips and was called by Dan Shak from the next seat over on the button.

Dan Shak:

Pluard was happy to see that she was well-ahead, but that happiness was short-lived after Shak hit a deuce on the flop. Pluard failed to improve on the turn and river and was sent to the rail.
