The flop came 
and both Marshall and Shen checked. The 
rolled off on the turn and Marshall checked. Shen bet and Marshall folded. Shen showed

The dealer completed the board with the 
and Martin tabled the 
for absolutely nothing. Martin became our bubble boy and the final 27 players are now all guaranteed at least $5,799.

"Why did you bet the turn with ace high?" proclaimed Shelton while laughing. "That's gotta be the worst bet in history! He bet the turn with ace high with a player all in!"
Shen was quiet through all of the comments and merely stacked his new chips.
