Shak Getting Short

Level 18
: Limits 20,000/40,000, 0 ante
Dan Shak opened from under the gun and was called by Shyamsundar Challa in the small blind.
Challa check-called a bet from Shak on the 6?7?4? flop and did so again following the 4? turn.
Both players check to showdown on the 5? river with Shak turning over 9x9x. The overpair was no good, however, as Challa had rivered a straight holding 3?3? to leave Shak short.
