A Welcome Turn for Shorr

The table folded around to Nicolas Levi who raised to 4,200 from the small blind. Then Shannon Shorr reraised to 11,200 from the big blind. Levi shoved all in for 70,000 total, and Shorr called with his remaining 33,000. Levi showed {A-Spades}{J-Hearts} and Shorr {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}.

Things looked bleak for Shorr after the flop came {8-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{4-Hearts}, but the {9-Clubs} came on the turn, giving Shorr his set. The river was the {K-Clubs}, and Shorr doubled up to 77,000. Levi slipped to 36,000.
