Shetta Shoves on Barbosa

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante
Sami Shetta
Sami Shetta

About 10 minutes into the tournament, we happened upon a hand with around 7,650 already in the pot and a board reading {10-Spades}{4-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{6-Clubs}. Finland's Sami Shetta had checked from the big blind and Joao Barbosa bet 5,000 from the button. Shetta then check-raised all in for 22,400, and Barbosa hit the tank.

Approximately two minutes ticked off the clock, and eventually Barbosa opted to lay down his hand. It was a big hand for Level 1 and could very well set the tone for this tournament.
