Rough Times for Davenport; Shaw Takes the Lead
A huge pot was brewing on Table 620 between Ivan Stankov and Matt Davenport.
There was around 1,600,000 in the pot on the K♣2♥6♦8♣9♣ board.
Stankov bet 725,000 from the cutoff, and Davenport called.
Stankov tabled 9♠9♦ for a set of nines.
"Jesus f****** christ," said a frustrated Davenport as he left his seat. He took a few steps away from the table before returning, where he and Stankov continued to stare each other down. As he returned to his seat, Davenport tabled his no good A♦K♦.
The pot left Davenport with around 650,000, and his chips were soon in the middle. He was all in and at risk to compatriot Carl Shaw.
Davenport had KxQx and was up against 7♥7♦. The board ran out with low cards for Shaw to down Davenport.
Soon after, Shaw banked another bust out, sending Christopher Staats to the rail for his chip stack to eclipse the 5,000,000 mark.
