Level 9: Blinds 400/800/75 ante
Mike Shasho & Keith Crowder, Demonstrating the Use of the ALL IN Button
For the first time during a Borgata Open tournament series, "ALL IN" buttons are being used.
Each table has a big red button that says "ALL IN" and it gets placed in front of the first player to get all his chips in the middle. The idea is to make sure everyone is aware of the all-in, even if they didn't hear the player or dealer announce it.
I recently caught the big red button in use back in the back of the Event Center.
After an opening raise to 1,200 and a call by Mike 'Mad Dog' Shasho (Ramsey, NJ), Keith Crowder (Elkins Park, PA) moved all-in for 9,425.
The opener folded and Mad Dog gave it some thought, then tossed in the call. "Don't watch this" he told me, as he rolled over his 83.
Keith was ahead with AJ and the board bricked out. Keith's Ace-high was good for a double-up.
