Ho Doubles through Shorr

In a battle of the blinds, big blind Maria Ho wound up all in against small blind Shannor Shorr. Shorr held {K-Hearts} {5-Hearts}, which was second-best to Ho's {10-Spades} {10-Hearts} on a board of {5-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {4-Hearts} {3-Clubs} {2-Clubs}. Shorr mis-counted how much he owed the pot after the hand, prompting Maria to joke, "Shannon, don't try to short me! I don't really have that much as it is." She has 26,000 now.
