Shannon-ymous?

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Allen Kessler (who's sat at the table nearest the PokerNews computer) asked me if Shannon Elizabeth was playing today. It being early, and the room not yet swept, I answered that I wasn't sure but would get back to him. "You must know who Shannon Elizabeth is?" he asked, incredulous, having picked up the wrong end of the stick with both hands.

I know there are few in the room who do not know the movie starlet/poker player, and I also know that she's not had the best early half-level. Just now in Omaha/8 she called a utg raise to 150, seeing a flop of {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

{10-Hearts}

{5-Diamonds}

. The utg player bet, she called. Exactly the same thing happened on the {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

turn, but the {5-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

river was checked.

Elizabeth's opponent showed {4-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

{Q-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{A-?}

and she mucked her hand.
