Jeff Thompson Binks The River on Dan Shak

Dan Shak has just dropped to 31,500 after losing a flip to the short stack Jeff Thompson. The pair got it in pre flop with Thompson at risk of elimination. Here was the showdown:

Thompson{2-Clubs} {2-Spades}
Shak{A-Diamonds} {J-Spades}

So Thompson needed to fade some paint, and he didn't get off to a very good start when the flop showed him {K-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {8-Spades}. The turn {9-Hearts} was no help, but Thompson knew it was coming because he hadn't moved a muscle.

River: {2-Diamonds}

"Bink," said Thompson before dragging in his lifeline pot.
