Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante

Danny Gonzales and Steve Wilkie were both seen no longer in their seats at Table 8 after being eliminated in a three-way all in pot.

According to an observer, the two of them got stacks in on the turn with Anthony Martinez on a board of {q-}{8-}{4-}{q-}.

Danny Gonzales: {4-}{4-}
Steve Wilkie: {q-}{6-}
Anthony Martinez: {a-}{q-}

Both Wilkie and Martinez hit trip queens on the turn but it had improved Gonzales' flopped set to a full house. Gonzales found himself one card away from tripling up to around 140,000 as long as he could fade a six, an eight, or an ace.

Unfortunately for Gonzales, Martinez had Barry Greenstein on his side as the river came {a-} to give him a higher full house, earning the double knockout and bringing his stack to around 189,000 in the process.
