Summary

Comments: Shorty never gives in. Known by many as one of the most talented players on the scene. Shorty’s ability to enter big events and win, without major tourney prep has him listed as the most dangerous mental player in the game. When players look at the draw, they first look to see where Shorty is at, then their own seed.
