Mike Shin

On a flop of Ts9h6s, Mike Shin checked from middle position and Ray Qartomy bet 3,500 from the hijack. Jeremy Wien called on the button and Shin check-called as well.

All three players checked the As turn and the 2d came on the river. Shin led out for 8,000 and Qartomy quickly folded. Wien thought for a minute before raising to 21,500.

Shin quickly called and showed 8h7h, having flopped the nut straight. Wien mucked his hand.

“I had a pair, a straight draw, and a spade,” said Wien after the hand. “I thought if he had anything other than that, I could get him off it.”

Mike Shin – 102,000
Jeremy Wien – 21,000
