Hand #78 - Shannon Shorr

Shannon Shorr has the button in seat 3. Theo Tran puts in a raise to 70,000. Shorr cuts out his calling chips and puts them into the pot. Both blinds fold.

The flop comes {K-Clubs} {7-Spades} {4-Hearts} . Check check.

The turn is the {3-Spades} . Action is on Tran, and he slides out 105,000 chips. Shorr puts in a raise to 275,000, and Tran makes the call.

The last card off is the {J-Clubs} . Tran checks, and Shorr does not. He moves all in for his last 920,000. Tran sits motionless for a minute or two before asking the dealer for a count. After learning the total, Tran stands and counts down his own stack. He pulls the calling chips off his mountainous stack, and gauges Shorr for a reaction. After this 10-minute ordeal, Tran does indeed make the call.

As he says the words, "I call," Tran already has his cards positioned up in the air, apparently ready to muck. Shorr shows down {7-Hearts} {7-Clubs} , and Tran does indeed throw them in, as he ships a huge chunk of chips over to Shannon Shorr.
