Nível 8 : 0/0, 6,000 ante

Dylan Wilkerson shoved over a couple of limps. It folded back to Dan Shak on his right and Shak thought awhile, sighed and flashed as he folded.

Afterward, the players discussed short deck strategy and equities a bit, with Maurice Hawkins expressing some surprise at the fold. Wilkerson confirmed even most dominated hands are around 70-30 in short deck.

"Well, it looks better than it is," Shak said. "Being suited doesn't really help that much, it's a mirage."

"Why doesn't it help?"

"Because flushes don't really come in."
