Day 1F: Shaw Chips Up

Written by Kirk | Mar 7, 2025 8:44:48 AM

After an open, Xiao Probst moved all in and David Shaw called for less while the rest of the table folded. 

Shaw tabled A♦K♠ and was ahead of the A♣Q♥ held by Probst. The runout of 7♦J♠K♦Q♠K♣ improved Shaw to trip kings and he was awarded a double. 

Shaw then went on to collect a big pot the very next hand when he out-flushed Damien Franco with queen-high versus ten-high on the river. 

Shaw - 520,000
Franco - 250,000
Probst - 40,000
