Shorr Doubles Again

Shannon Shorr raised to 11,000 from under the gun and Sean Keeton called from the button. Rory Matthews reraised to 55,000 from the small blind and Shorr moved all in for 160,000. Keeton got out of the way and Matthews called.

Matthews: {8-Hearts} {8-Spades}
Shorr: {10-Diamonds} {10-Clubs}

The board kept Shorr's higher pocket pair safe, allowing him to double up to 340,000. Not too bad considering he was under 70,000 to start the level.
