Dan Shak Triples; Scott Ball Wins Massive Side Pot Against Ali Imsirovic
Ali Imsirovic opened to 60,000 from early position, Dan Shak jammed for 255,000 from early position, and Scott Ball raised to 550,000 in middle position. Action folded back to Imsirovic who jammed, and Ball called for his stack of about 1,350,000 more.
Shak: [Th9h]
Ball: [AsKh]
Imsirovic: [AhQc]
Ball had a solid lead over Imsirovic, and Shak was in relatively good shape but needed help as the flop came [Jc5h2c]. The [Td] turn put Shak in the lead for the main pot, and he got up and walked away from the table as the [2s] safely completed the board to keep his tournament life alive and give him the triple.
Meanwhile, Ball had 1,650,000 more chips that Imsirovic had to pay off for the side pot, leaving Imsirovic with only a few big blinds.
