Shakerchi Hero-Calls at the Wrong Time
Level 24
Omaha Hi-Lo
Matthew Ashton raised with the A?J?7?6? and Talal Shakerchi three-bet with the A?K?5?3? in the small blind. Brian Rast pondered about it with A?Q?10?9? in the big blind but folded while Ashton called. On the Q?7?6? flop, Shakerchi checked and Ashton bet for his fellow countryman to call behind.
The J? turn saw Shakerchi check-call a bet and he did so again on the J? river, albeit very reluctantly with the ace-king high for a pure bluff catcher. Ashton, however, had jacks full of sixes and scooped the pot.
