Shahar's Kings are Counterfeit; Strasser Shoves in Lengthy Pre-Flop Pot
Ran Shahar raised to 34,000 in the small blind and Theodoor Woolschot called in the big blind.
The flop came all aces with A♦A♣A♠ and both players checked. The last ace then fell on the A♥ turn. "At least I know you don't have aces," Shahar said as he bet 20,000. Woolschot folded and Shahar showed K♦K♠ as he took the pot.
At another table, Bogdan Roman raised to 25,000 under the gun as action folded to Martin Kabrhel in the small blind. He took nearly five minutes until another player called the clock. Kabrhel eventually folded, while Karl Strasser in the big blind also took several minutes.
The clock was again called and Strasser made a triangle to indicate he was all in. Action was back on Roman who tanked for more than a minute until folding as Strasser took the pot that lasted nearly 10 minutes without going to a flop.
