Gathy In the Drivers Seat

Level 5 : 100/200, 0 ante

Beth Shak opened the action with a raise under-the-gun plus one to 500. She got one caller before the player on the button moved all in for 925. Bracelet winner Michael Gathy in the big blind also moved all in, for 2,850. Shak seemingly had a hard decision as she took her time and talked to herself the entire time. "Wow!" she said, "Oh my God!" talking about the action in front of her. "Part of me wants to call because I've got someone coming out tonight" she later said. She didn't listen to that part though as she eventually folded. the caller folded as well, so Gathy was heads up against the player on the button.

Gathy showd {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} and was well in front of the {10-Spades}{K-Spades} of the button. Shak started moaning for some reason and it increased as the {2-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} | {6-Clubs} | {4-Spades} boar developed. "I knew I should have called, I had pocket tens" said Shak to no one in particular. Jennifer Shahade was friendly enough to nod.
