Brian Hastings

Loni Harwood opened from the button and an opponent three-bet shoved from the small blind for 33,200. Brian Hastings shipped in over the top for 56,400 from the big blind and Harwood released her hand after a moment.

Small blind: Ac2h
Hastings: AdKs

Hastings was in a dominating position for the knockout and took a big lead on the Kc5h3d flop. He had to dodge a gutshot wheel draw and the 6d turn and Js river sent him the pot.

Brian Hastings – 91,000 (46 bb)

Michelle Shah

We have a few power couples in the poker game but not so many when it comes to a brother/sister combination. Michelle and Sean Shah are regulars in our tournament and each owns some nice results.

Sean won two SHRP titles last year, one at the Coco Poker Open and the other here in the during the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown in the spring. He also finished fourth in the $365 Freeze-Out event on Tuesday.

Michelle has a handful of SHRP final tables, dozens of deep runs, and nearly a $10K payday for a late finish in the 2016 PCA Main Event.

But as far as the WSOPC Main Event here, Michelle has the best of her brother at the moment with her working a stack and Sean on the rail.
