Ship it to Shak
Livello 5
: 100/200, 0 ante
Dan Shak is continuing to add to his already massive chipstack.
A player in late position pushed all in for his last 1,275 and Shak called from the small blind. Shak showed the 
which was ahead of the other player's 
.
The board ran out 
and Shak's full house sent the other player to the rail. After the hand Shak had around 32,000 which makes him one of our current chipleaders.

Jarzabek Takes One Down
Livello 6
: 100/200, 25 ante
Casey Jarzabek's stack is moving in the right direction. He raised from under the gun to 525 only to have the player in the cutoff re-raise to 1,300. Jarzabek called and they saw a flop of 
. Both players checked and the 
fell on the turn. Jarzabek checked and the cutoff bet 2,500. Jarzabek shuffled his chips for a bit before putting out a raise that more than covered his opponents stack. The cutoff decided to call and Jarzabek stated, "If you call you probably win."
Jarzabek revealed his 
for a pair of sevens and found that he was ahead of the all-in player's 
. The river brought the and Jarzabek's stack grew to around 20,000.
Shak Slips a Bit
Livello 6
: 100/200, 25 ante
Dan Shak has been staying active and we just caught him calling another player's all in. They were off to the races as Shak held the 
while the other player had the 
. The flop came 
but the 
fell on the turn leaving Shak drawing dead. The 
on the river was inconsequential and the other player doubled up.
Luckily for Shak the other player didn't have many chips to start with and Shak's stack is still at a very healthy 31,000.

The Brock Says
Livello 6
: 100/200, 25 ante
We just saw Brock Parker’s stack grow as he was stacking the chips of an opponent that he eliminated. We missed the action but assume that the money got all in preflop with Parker holding 
. His opponent had 
and the board was 
giving Parker the unnecessary straight. He was up to 11,000 after the hand.
