Shebat Bucks Domination, Doubles Up Off Iyer

Level 13: 1,000 / 2,500 ante: 2,500

The action is folded to the button where India’s Gagandeep Singh Malik raises it up to 5,500. In the SB, Chris Shebat of the United States 3-bets it to 11,000. In the BB, another Indian player in Abhinav Iyer 4-bets all-in. Malik folds but Shebat makes the call.

Iyer shows A♠ J♦ and is a hand that dominates his American opponent as Shebat tables Aad 9♠ .

The flop, though, changes everything: A♥ 9♥ 5♠ to give Shebat top two pair. The hand holds as the final two community cards are dealt: 6♥ and K♦ .

Since Shebat’s stack was so short, Iyer still has a serviceable stack of just under 80,000. Shebat is practically back to the starting stack.
