Patel One Foot Out the Door

Level 17 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Under the gun, Gary Friedlander opened to 8,000, and Kunal Patel three-bet shoved for 75,600 on the button. The action came to Shannon Shorr, and he too shoved, all in for about 140,000 from the big blind. "I'm out," Friedlander said, and Patel was at risk as the cards were tabled.

Showdown
Patel: {K-Hearts} {Q-Clubs}
Shorr: {J-Diamonds} {J-Clubs}

"Good luck," Shorr said, but he may want to swallow those words now. The dealer ripped off a {J-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} flop, and Patel slid a foot out from under the table and began to stand up. Halfway through his motion, the {10-Hearts} hit the turn, and Patel froze as he'd picked up eight outs to the double. He was still frozen in place as the {A-Clubs} filled out the board, and he dropped right back down into his chair after finding that lucky run-out.

Shorr is a bit disappointed as he gives away more than half his stack, dropping to 66,200 while Patel doubles to 155,100.
