Tolbert Knocks Gordon Down a Peg

Level 28 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Arnaldo Gordon raised to 200,000 from middle position and Thomas Tolbert then pushed in a three-bet of 580,000. Gordon moved all in and Tolbert snapped for his 2,345,000 stack, putting him at risk of elimination.

Thomas Tolbert: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Arnaldo Gordon: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

The flop was devastating for Tolbert as the dealer turned over {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{7-Clubs}, giving Gordon three bullets. Tolbert stood out of his seat and the dealer flipped over a {j-Clubs}, slowing him down as he was getting ready to leave.

A {2-Clubs} peeled off on the river and Tolbert instantly sat back down, nailing his runner-runner flush to take down the pot for a complete double through Gordon, taking over the chip lead in the process.
