Another Small Pot for Shelly

Stephen Shelly is fast approaching two million in chips thanks to a string of small pots he's won over the past half hour.

In a recent hand, Sorel Mizzi opened with a raise to 55,000 from middle position and Shelly made the call behind him.

The flop came down {3-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and Mizzi fired a 62,000 continuation bet that was called by Shelly.

Mizzi then checked the {9-Hearts} that fell on 4th Street and Shelly took his turn firing at the pot, betting 60,000, which was enough to chase Mizzi out of the pot.
