Shannon Shorr is one of the most respected poker players in the field here at EPT Prague. The Alabama native has live tournament scores dating back six years, cashes that add up to almost $4,500,000.
Amazingly, Shorr only has one EPT Main Event cash and that came back in 2006 when he 21st at EPT London. He will be hoping to improve on that record during this week.
If Shorr is to cash for the second time in an EPT Main Event, he is going to need to add to his stack and take down some pots as he is playing from a stack that is around 2/3 the average. Just now, the impeccably dressed Shorr opened to 1,100 from the hijack and only picked up the blinds and antes.
Shorr will continue to chip away at his opponents and make a nuisance of himself for as long as he has chips, that is for certain.
