Hand #11 - Anatoly Shilyuk

Rep Porter has the button in seat 3. John Conkright raises to 35,000 from the cutoff seat. The big blind, Anatoly Shilyuk, announces a raise and then pushes out a total of 95,000. Conkright stares down his opponent, and then eventually folds. Anatoly Shilyuk wins the pot.

Players Circling Each Other

Ten hands into this final table, it has become quite evident that the players are wary of each other. As opposed to the frenetic pace of play on Day 1 and Day 2, players seem more content to sit back on their stacks and wait for premium hands before getting involved. We'll see what happens once the first big pot is pushed by the dealer.
