Shaw Smacks the River to Crack Priestley's Aces
Level 19
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Carl Shaw raised to 18,000 in the hijack and Sinead Priestley then moved all in for 160,000 on the button. "This is a close one," Shaw said as he tanked for a moment before calling.
Sinead Priestley: A?A?
Carl Shaw: K?Q?
The flop came 10?10?8?, while Priestley remained in front on the 9? turn but Shaw picked up a straight draw. The river came the J?.
"No. Happens every time. So annoying," Priestley said, still smiling despite Shaw completing his straight to send her to the rail. She stopped to take a picture of the board before heading for the rail.
