Slow Going During Hand-for-Hand Play

Nível 17 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Things have been slow the past ten minutes or so as everyone seems intent on making the money. In one of the more notable hands we've seen of late, and that's not saying much, Shannon Shorr raised from the cutoff and David "Bakes" Baker defended from the big blind.

The flop saw Baker check and Shorr bet 30,000. Baker responded with a check-raise to 72,000 and it was enough to get the job done as Shorr sent his hand to the muck.

Shannon Shorr	490,000 -55,000	-55,000

David "Bakes" Baker	375,000 197,000	197,000
