Shorr No More

We reported Shannon Shorr was “healthy” recently, but after a big hand things rapidly took a turn for the worse for him. And how.

Some preflop back-and-forthing between Shorr and an opponent had already started the pot-building when the flop came {Q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}. Shorr bet 675, and his opponent called. The turn was the {5-Clubs}, and this time Shorr bet 1,625. His opponent again was there with the call.

The river brought the {8-Clubs} and an all-in shove from Shorr. When his opponent called yet again, Shorr winced. “Aces?” he asked. His opponent wordlessly responded by showing his {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}. Having been slightly covered, Shorr was eliminated and soon was making the long walk out of the Pavilion.
