"April $100,000 GTD:" Piderit Halts Shah's Upswing

"April $100,000 GTD"
$360 No Limit Hold'em Deep Stack
Level10 (Blinds 500/1,000/200)
Total Flight 1C Entries: 105

Since returning from break as one of the chip leaders, Sean Shah spent the last level winning all of the chips.  He saw his stack of just under 100,000 turn into 190,000, and was showing a visible confidence mid hands.  Moments ago, after Shah opened the pot, Eric Piderit (Weston, FL) called behind from late position, with action folding to Ian Cohen in the big blind.  Cohen chose to three-bet to 13,000, and after a flat from Shah, Piderit four-bet shoved for just over 43,000.  Cohen, who was sitting with an effective stack of 103,000, called Piderit's all-in.  Shah was left to act, and after about a minute, pushed forward enough to put Cohen at risk.  It didn't take long before Cohen released his hand, and Piderit said to Shah, "How bad of shape am I?"

Shah: A K♠
Piderit: 8 8♠

Board: 10♠ 2♣ 6 7 3

Eric's pocket eights would hold, and he would triple up to over 130,000.  Piderit is no stranger to tournament success, with $112,000 in career earnings.  Just over a month ago, Eric won himself an event during the SHRPO ($570 No Limit Hold'em Event #13 - $17,227).

Sean Shah - 140,000
Eric Piderit - 133,000
