Shepherd Calls the Shove
Level 15
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 4,000 ante
Level 13: Blinds 3k/5k/5k
Eric Shepherd opened to 12,000 preflop but then Kyle Anderson moved all in, covering him.
Shepherd then went into the tank for around 30 seconds before he shrugged and made the call for his tournament life.
Eric Shepherd: A♥J♥
Kyle Anderson: K♥10♣
Anderson needed some help to catch up to Anderson's ace-high, but the board of 9♦3♥2♥5♣A♠ gave Shepherd the win with his pair of aces.
Shepherd's stack is now sitting at 100,000 while Anderson is left with around 20,000.
