Short Stack Shots

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Haykel Cherif Vidal wins one of what will become more and more common as the day draws to a close: short stack all-in pre races. His {9-Hearts}{9-Spades} held vs. {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts} on a {5-Spades}{6-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} board to get him back in the game with over 20,000.

Meanwhile at about the same time, another, shorter stack decided not to take the plunge, despite needing to more than triple up to hit the average chips. Ciaran Burke in the big blind saw a limped threeway flop of {8-Spades}{3-Clubs}{7-Hearts} and checked it. The first, early position limper bet 2,100 and cleared the other opposition, but Burke made the call. On the {J-Spades} turn Burke checked, and after counting it out, his opponent bet 6,425 - exactly what Burke had left. He thought for a while, but whatever he'd called with on the flop, he was not prepared to put his tournament life at risk with it.
