Giesbrecht Spikes Two out of Three

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Sean Giesbrecht opened to 8,000 and Kenneth Khoo three-bet before Christopher Coghlan got his short stack of 30,000 into the middle out of the big blind. Giesbrecht moved all in about 10 seconds later and Khoo snap-called with the biggest stack.

Coghlan: {J-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}
Khoo: {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}
Giesbrecht: {A-Spades}{K-Spades}

The flop {6-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} immediately improved Giesbrecht and he pumped a fist. On the {8-Spades} turn, Khoo had one out remaining and it wasn't meant to be with the {A-Diamonds} coming on the river. Coghlan was eliminated and Khoo had 50,000 chips left, but walked up to the payout desk a few minutes later.

At the same table is still Gerald Karlic, who staged a comeback from just 24,000 chips.
