Gilllingham Calls Down Sydenstricker
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Around 60,000 was already in the pot as Joao Sydenstricker and Matthew Gillingham went to the river on a board of J♥7♦4♠A♣K♣. Sydenstricker then moved all in from the button.
Gillingham tanked for a moment before calling in the big blind with J♣4♥ for two pair. Sydenstricker flashed a pair of eights as he sent them into the muck. The stacks were counted down and Gillingham had 120,000 remaining. Sydenstricker was barely covered and last year's runner-up was sent to the rail.
