Sheikhan Shoves, Survives
Level 16
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Ryan Snickles opened with a raise to 14,000 from early position and it folded to Shawn Sheikhan in the big blind. Sheikhan began the day as one of the short stacks, with but 95,500 to start.
Sheikhan checked his cards, then put his stack out in front of him as an all-in reraise. Snickles considered the situation.
"You want action?" asked Snickles, but Sheikhan only stared at the WSOP logo in the center of the table. Finally Snickles folded, and Sheikhan broke into a wide grin.
"I got a big blind… I got 
-offsuit… what am I gonna do?" he said as he dragged the pot.
