Shorr Goes in the Tank

When we reached the table, the board read {2-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}. Shaun Deeb and another opponent checked to Shannon Shorr, who bet 7,000. The third player released, and Deeb tanked before check-raising to 17,000. Shorr tank-called.

The turn was the {q-Clubs}, and Deeb moved all in for effectively 47,000. Shorr slipped into the tank, silently riffling chips with one hand while protecting his cards with another. He eventually took his sunglasses off and took his headphones out of his ears, and began studying Deeb.

At about the three-minute mark, Deeb reached for his Corona, and took a small sip. He put the beer back, and continued to sit silently. Eventually, Shorr folded, and Deeb quickly mucked the winner.
