Shannon Shorr - 16th Place

No-Limit Hold'em

From under the gun, Joep van den Bijgaart raised to 8,500. Michael Gathy, who won Event 21: $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em, reraised to 20,500. Shannon Shorr was on the button and reraised all in for 113,000 after play folded to him. Van den Bijgaart gave it up, but Gathy made the call.

Gathy turned up the {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} to have a strangle hold on the {K-Spades}{Q-Hearts} of Shorr.

The flop was a dry {9-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{3-Spades} as far as Shorr was concerned. That was followed by the {9-Clubs} on fourth street and the {5-Hearts} on fifth street. Shorr couldn't come from behind and was eliminated in 16th place. Gathy took the bounty, the pot and moved himself into the chip lead.

Andre Akkari was all in preflop with the {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs} for 78,000 against the {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} for Erik Cajelais.

Akkari flopped a gutshot straight draw to go with his pair on the {6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} flop, but the {J-Spades} on the turn and {10-Spades} on the river left him second best. He was eliminated in 15th place and took home $10,219 for his effort.
