2020 World Series of Poker (WSOP) $10,000 Main Event played out at the
Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. In this analysis, I use a special tool called
ICMizer and show you an alternative strategy to the traditional all-in or fold when you become shallow stacked.
Itâs interesting to see how
Shawn Strokeâs elimination hand would have become a fold if he managed to min-raise rather than shove his 4-big-blind stack. Would you agree that this is a $50,000 mistake or was there really no other way to play it?
The hand took place with seven players remaining and the blinds at 125,000/250,000/250,000. Itâs worth noting that the next player out was slated to receive $163786 in prize money, while sixth and fifth would receive $215,222 and $286,963 respectively. There were some decent pay jumps all the way up to the $1.5 million top prize.
