Tough Table
Table 12 is definitely not a dime a dozen as it's probably the toughest in the room. Seated around the same oval orf baize are this motley crew:
| Seat | Player | Chips |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Przemyslaw Misztel | 73,400 |
| 2 | Marc-Etienne Mclaughlin | 26,100 |
| 3 | Carlos Egea | 43,800 |
| 4 | Marc Macdonnell | 98,200 |
| 5 | Ryan Franklin | 23,100 |
| 6 | Shannon Shorr | 40,400 |
| 7 | Craig Mccorkell | 37,500 |
| 8 | Nicolas Levi | 40,200 |
There's a bracelet winner, a November Niner, EPT Final Tablists and although Shannon Shorr doesn't have an outright win in a major tournament he's won a $10,000 event and has over $3,000,000 in lifetime earnings. Tough table for sure.
What's also interesting is that none of the main protagonists have an above average stack. Marc MacDonnell, who has final tabled a UKIPT event, is the biggest stack at the table.
As I was observing the table Shorr and Marc-Etienne Mclaughlin tangled in a pot. The former opened to 1,600 from early position, Mclaughlin three-bet to 4,000 total but folded after Shorr made it 7,500 to play with around 26,600 back. Pot to Shorr.
