Ali Shahni bet 40,000 from under the gun and was met with a raise of 180,000 from Zlatin Penev on the button. Shahni made the call.
The flop came 10?8?3? and Penev continued for 220,000. Shahni responded with a shove of 624,000 and was called by Penev.
Ali Shahni: Q?Q?
Zlatin Penev: K?10?
Shahni hit top pair, but Penev was ahead with the pocket ladies. The 4?2? completed the board to secure a humongous double-up for Shahni and a massive blow to Penev's stack.
