Igor Sharaskin Felts a Foe, Building a Huge Stack
Nível 8
: 300/600, 0 ante
With about 8,000 chips already in the middle and the board reading 
, Igor Sharaskin checked from the big blind, and the player in the hijack bet 4,000. Sharaskin check-raised to 16,000, the hijack moved all in for just under 60,000, Sharaskin called, and the two players tabled their hands.
Sharaskin: 
Hijack: 
Both players had Broadway, and they each had redraws to scoop the pot. Sharaskin had the nut club draw, and his opponent had a set of queens, so he could win on any board-pairing river card.
The dealer slid out the 
on the river, which gave Sharaskin the nut flush to take the pot, putting his stack over the 200,000-chip mark and sending his opponent to the rail.
