| Joe Shinn (Cherry Hill, NJ) |
One player who has flown relatively under the radar so far today is Joe Shinn, who just moved over the 4,000,000 chip mark in a recent hand with Ray Ross.
Shinn opened the action to 350,000 and was called by Ross in middle position.
Shinn then open shoved for 2,400,000 on a board of 10♦Q♣9♣.
Ross was put in a very difficult spot as the shove was for close to 2.5 times the pot.
He was also seen glancing up at the tournament monitor, perhaps checking the chip counts, but, most likely looking at the pay jumps, as they are quite steep moving foward.
Ross would have put close to 30% of his stack at risk if he had called and elected to fold and wait for a better spot and perhaps wait for some of the shorter stacks to be sent to the rail.
Shinn is peaking at the right time and is now close to the average chip stack with 9 players remaining.
